The first point that best explain why Fred Singer’s arguments are pseudoscience is because his claim come from a source dedicated to supporting it. For example, he stated that he hasn’t seen global warming for the last 10 years, however with this positive hypothesis he only presents it with research of data or evidence that support his claims, where on the other hand, science works with neither a positive or a negative hypothesis and are open to all evidence that either support or goes against it. The second point, is that the quality of the data supporting Fred Singer’s claim is unjustified. The sample size of looking at only 10 years is too small to have a statistical significance, while choosing using observational selection of endpoints in his data that support his claim.

Wiesel had no need to elaborate on his allusions because he wanted his audience to think and remember by themselves the indifferences listed and reflect on how over time nothing has changed.

Being logical is important to Baron as he professed his purpose that not everyone is capable of writing. Historical figures such as Martin Luther reasoned that “you just read one good book, which you can read over and over-the gift that keeps on giving-not a lot of bad books that will just fill your head with error just to confuse you”(Baron 709). If a book is exceptional, it should make its readers read it over and over again. This is a topic that is endangered when too many books or materials exist. The issue of unimportant logic comes into play when too much is created.
