Statement A: When good things happen to you, you praise the lord.
Statement B: Good things happen to you.
Conclusion : You praise the lord.

Over here, we have a logical (not necessarily true, but logical) argument. A+B = C.

So if we agree to the above syllogism, we can move onto the next series of statements.

Statement A: When bad things happen to you, you do not praise the lord.
Statement B: Bad things happen to you.
Conclusion : You do not praise the lord.

once again, A + B = C

following the rational train of thought of this argument, when given A and when B happens, C will follow. i.e. when bad things happen to you, you do not praise the lord.
however, often we find that when bad things happen to religious believers, instead of not praising the lord, they blame satan! there happens to be a distinct difference between praising the lord and blaming satan.

an awkward consequence:
Statement A: When bad things happen to you, you do not praise the lord.
Statement B: Bad things happen to you.
Conclusion: You blame satan. (?)

A + B =/ C
inconclusive conclusion. irrational argument. logos violation.
