      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 2.Historical accounts describe individuals comprehending supernatural forces while morally compromised, suggesting soul-purification is not strictly necessary.
      ?

      Think about whether this reason is strong or weak

    • 3.Confusing sufficient conditions with necessary ones is a common logical fallacy; purification may enhance comprehension without being its prerequisite.
