> Sky is always brighter than the land, moon is not required.
replySpeaking of things being wrong...how can you come to this conclusion? There are many beaches where turtle hatchlings get confused by all of the lights on land where they crawl away from the ocean instead of towards it. Land is so bright, that the vast majority of humans can no longer see the night sky. So again I ask, how do you come to the conclusion that land is darker than the sky?
I think the missing part is "in the absence of artificial light".
replyIn "the absence of artificial light", please explain how land will be brighter than the sky
replyIt wouldn't, that's his point.
replya conclusion can be right even if an argument for it is wrong.
replyIf P then Q, P therefore Q. Q is not the conclusion, it's just the consequent. If P is false, then Q could be true, but claiming Q is true because P is true when P is actually false is a wrong conclusion.
replyi don't see what point your making.
replytake something you know to be true. now come up with a stupid, falacious argument for it. now you can see that seeing an argument is bad doesn't mean the conclusion is wrong.
