Premises
|
Facts/ truths (supposed)
|
Since there isn’t much evidence on the devil bird and at least have had one person see the bird in action helps with believing that the bird is true.
|
Loci (quality)
|
The devil bird has only been seen a couple of times making it seem like since not that many people have seen the animal will make it more believable
|
|
Premise modifier
|
Presence (Repetition)
|
Repeating that the bird has a special calling but any might mistake it for other birds calling. As well as saying that no one has seen the bird in action.
|
(Amplification)
|
Not that many people have seen the bird since its unique but it’s still there when you get the chance to see the bird
|
|
(Aggregation)
|
Adding that some people who have actually looked into it such as Dr. R.L. with the book ‘The Far of things’ since there has already seen a Hawk-eagle makes it more likely.
|
|
Establishing the Structure of Reality
|
Example (single)
|
There has only been one person who has seen the devil bird and that was in the year 2001 that they heard the cry and seen in action
|
Establishing the Structure of Reality: Fallacy
|
Appeal to the ignorance
|
There isn’t much evidence that people have seen the devil bird, making it easier for people to believe in it
|
Wishful Thinking
|
Not many people have seen the bird but mostly everyone has mistaken the cry with other animals and just because one person saw the bird in action in 2001 it should be enough for others to believe in it.
