Document Summary
11/19/2015 (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) (cid:1) I"m sorry for all the message i never returned. P1 valuable - it would be valuable if status postings had to be true/reliable (take them at face value, trust) P2 obligation from the convention by that value, people should/ought to stick to what they express/say in their status posting. Conclusion therefore therefore, if i post an apology on facebook, Obligation doesn"t uphold the value or uphold the convention. Argue that the conclusion doesn"t follow the premises; just because something is valuable and it obligates me doesn"t really mean i should do it; there can be things that are more valuable. I say to my roommate, i apologize for never replying to your text messages. P1 apologies should reassure the victim that it won"t happen again (first line is a value claim premise)
