Thank you so much I understand now. It is still hard to put on paper because i have to explain which argument is inductive/deductive – that we figured out.

I have to determine the form and explain why the deductive argument is valid or not

And finally, determine if each is rationally persuasive or not ans why.

It’s funny because in Philo it’s like it’s all in the head because I understand (most) of the subject, but I’m blocking once I need to write about it.

So I understand with the example you gave me. However, how do I do to show VALIDITY  which I seem to confuse with SOUNDNESS? It’s funny because I understand it but when I need to write write it, it becomes complicated.

Thanks Davis for responding. Indeed it confused me but I think it’s on purpose that the professor put these two similar arguments, but written differently.

So we had one argument that said: Everything my mother says is true. My mother says god exists. Therefore, god exists.

That was seen in class as a deductive argument since the premises are true then the conclusion can’t be false.

then we had to show if it was valid and sound.

Now I know these sentences are stupid, but we are not talking about whether or not it is.
