In site of our papers I thought that I should talk about chapter 6 section A2, Contradictory of a Claim!
The Contradictory of a claim according to Epstein is “ a claim that has the opposite truth-value in all possible circumstances” I thought this would be perfect to look at since part of our paper is on the contradictory of a claim. So in words the contradictory of a claim is the negation to a claim, it’s basically the opposite!
You hear contradictory of a claim all the time in everyday life. When people argue and even on paper and in books. I can think of one that two of my friends said yesterday! One friend said that she “got to meet will smith while she was in
That right there shows you that there are in everyday speech you hear them all the time and never notice it. The next time that you are talking with someone listen, you might be surprised in what you hear!

ReplyDeleteYay we both think that the contradictory of a claim is interesting. I don't think many people realize how contradicting they get whenever they try to win in an argument or trying to prove something. I really like your example of how your friend said she's gonna meet will smith haha it's pretty obvious that from the start, what are the chances of meeting will smith unless you're a movie star too? But your example showed people what is a contradictory claim so they will realize it the next time :) I love how you explained to the reader that "the contradictory of a claim is the negation to a claim, it’s basically the opposite!". I couldn't have said it better myself!
