Statement: Should religion be banned?

Arguments:

1. Yes. It develops fanaticism in people.

2. No, Religion binds people together

  • A.Only argument I is strong
  • B.Only argument II is strong
  • C.Either I or II is strong
  • D.Neither I nor II is strong
  • E.Both I and II are strong

Answer: C

Correct answer: Either I or II is strong

This is the case where both arguments bear directly on the question and pull in opposite directions, each resting on a real consequence of religion - that it can produce fanaticism, and that it binds communities together. Neither can be dismissed, and neither settles the matter, so the answer is that either may be taken as the strong one depending on which consequence is weighed the more heavily.
