Technically it is an arguement, since it states a premise, followed by a conclusion. What I think you're saying (and I fully agree with) is that the conclusion is not actually justified by the premise, even if you accept the premise.
Always is a bad word in nearly all subjects apart from maths in my experience :) On the plus side, absolute statements are really easy to argue against, as you only have to find one counter example, which made my essay writing easier!
