Conclusion
Ch. 4. Prevalence cause
3
Facts being the source of the prevalence of arguments
of this class — among the ignorant — uninformed — the ill-informed
thinking multitude — the principle of this causes
would internally work and honestly point men ashamed
of them
6
The stronger the influence
of this irrelevant sort of argument,
the stronger to
every man the evidence
of its efficiency: thence
the temptation to employ
it.
The stronger and more uniform the influence
habitually exercised by these irrelevant arguments considerations — exercised
through the medium of the affections on the will and
over the judgment of the weak multitude, the stronger
will be the evidence of its efficiency afforded at of it its to every man
by his own every man's expressions; and the stronger the evidence
of has of its efficiency the stronger will be the temptation
he is under to employ it.
