Directions: In making decisions about important questions it is desirable to be able to distinguish between 'strong' arguments and 'weak' arguments so far as they relate to the question. 'Strong' arguments must be both important and directly related to the questions. 'Weak' arguments may not be directly related to the question. The question below is followed by two arguments numbered I and II. You have to decide which of the arguments is ‘strong’.
