Are you confident you can reason clearly? Are you able to convince others of your point of view? Are you able to give plausible reasons for believing what you believe? Do you sometimes read arguments in the newspapers, hear them on the television, or in the pub and wish you knew how to confidently evaluate them? In this six-part course, you will learn all about arguments, how to identify them, how to evaluate them, and how not to mistake bad arguments for good. Such skills are invaluable if you are concerned about the truth of your beliefs, and the cogency of your arguments.

How to Write a Good Argumentative Essay: First Argumentby PhilosophyFreak19,206 views
The fact is also an argument, it is simpy a conventional postulate. The truth value refers to deviation from the normative. What is a pen for a modern theortical physicist, atoms? The same thing is there for the molecular biologist? As a philosopher of a recent centuery said, exegesis is hegenomy. After all, her appeal to Wittgenstien is in bad faith, the notions of nonsense and private language etc, far from clearified, he himslef fell back on the ultimate truth of what one calls solipsism.

For anyone struggling with the sea being salty and Melbourne being in Australia consider this. One of these pairs of sentence is made of two true statement, one of two false statements.
Australia is the 5th largest nation on the planet
The deepest point of the ocean is over 12,000m below sea level
Australia is the 6th largest nation on the planet
The deepest point in the ocean is over 11,000m below sea level
Check any one fact and you can make a 'therefore' statement about the other 3
