In making decisions about important questions, it is desirable to be able to distinguish between ‘strong’ arguments and ‘weak’ arguments. ‘Strong’ arguments are those which are both important and directly related to the question. ‘Weak’ arguments are those which are of minor importance and also may not be directly related to the question or may be related to a trivial aspect of the question.
Instructions : In each of the following a question is followed by two arguments numbered I and II.
You have to decide which argument is strong and which argument is weak.
Give answer a: if only argument I is strong.
Give answer b: if only argument II is strong.
Give answer c: if either argument I or II is strong.
Give answer d: if neither argument I nor II is strong.
Give answer e: if both the arguments I and II are strong.
Statement : Should animal be killed in the name of laboratory experiment ?
Arguments
I. Yes, they are available in abundance.
II. No, we have been supporting non-violence on every step of our lives.
Abundance of animals does not mean that we should reduce their number. Hence, I is a weak argument. II is also a weak argument because does it not depict the real picture. Are we really supporting non violence on every step of our lives? Moreover, it does not go into the reason for practicing non violence.
Thus, neither argument I nor II is strong.
