Some argument sounds clear and logical, reasoned rigorously, and its conclusion unmistakable, but one point has been forgotten, the reasoning is established only under a premise hypothesis, if that hypothesis does not exist, all of the following inferences have no meaning. What’s the point of those noisy arguments, perhaps the fun is to find yourself smart in the process, but the question is your argument need to be really unimpeachable.
有些论证听上去逻辑清晰推理严密结论确凿无疑，可是立论者忘记了，那些推理都是在一个前提假设下才成立的，如果那个假设并不存在，那后面的所有推论都没有意义。那些喧嚣的争辩有什么意思呢，也许乐趣在于在这个过程中发现自己是个聪明人吧，可问题是你的论点要真的无懈可击才行啊
