Alien Fallacy

The alien fallacy is one of the many smokescreens that are used to cover the fact that the reasoning is based on one of the three fallacies of Agrippa's trilemma. Whenever a logical fallacy is committed, the fallacy has its roots in Agrippa's trilemma. All human thought (without Divine revelation) is based on one of three unhappy possibilities. These three possibilities are infinite regression, circular reasoning, or axiomatic thinking. This problem is known as Agrippa's trilemma. Some have claimed that only logic and math can be known without Divine revelation; however, that is not true. There is no reason to trust either logic or math without Divine revelation. Science is also limited to the pragmatic because of the weakness on human reasoning, which is known as Agrippa's trilemma.

The Alien Fallacy occurs when aliens are used as evidence. I don’t have a good answer, but aliens could have done it.

Examples of the Alien Fallacy

Rocky: “How did the first life form by random chance on the Earth.”

Sandy: “Scientists are working on this, and some think that perhaps life was first planted on the Earth by aliens from other planets.”

How would moving the problem across the Universe with imaginary beings solve the problem?
