any argument takes following form non sequitur
even if premise , conclusion true, conclusion not necessary consequence of premise. sort of non sequitur called affirming consequent.
an example of affirming consequent be:
while conclusion may true, not follow premise:
the truth of conclusion independent of truth of premise – non sequitur , since jackson might mammal without being human. might be, say, elephant.
affirming consequent same fallacy of undistributed middle, using propositions rather set membership.
