GMU Electrical Engineering Validity Discussion
PROMPT #1: ARGUMENT PROMPT. Consider the following argument:
Validity is of no importance. An argument can have false premises and still be valid. In fact, it can have false premises and a false conclusion, yet still be valid. Therefore, there is no connection between truth and validity. Thus, validity is irrelevant to truth and therefore to philosophical inquiry.
How would you reply to this argument? Which statements of the argument are correct and which incorrect?
