Question # 282 from the Baltimore Catechism #3: To make a sin mortal, three things are necessary: a grievous matter, sufficient reflection, and full consent of the will.

In other words, besides being a grave matter in itself, we must know it is sinful at the time we are guilty of it; and we must willingly yield to it. This does NOT mean that you sit down with a cup of coffee to deliberate over it, in some instances, all of this could be accomplished in seconds.

What conditions are necessary for sin to be mortal?

Three things are necessary for a sin to be mortal: It must be grave matter (it must be seriously wrong: murder, missing Mass on Sunday, etc.) One must know that it will offend God. One must choose one's own will anyway. "Look, God, I know that I should get up and go to Mass, I know that you want me to, but I want to lay in bed/go to the beach/whatever so I'm not going to Mass."

Can you provide examples of implicit premises in arguments?

Implicit premises are assumptions that are not explicitly stated in an argument but are necessary for the argument to be valid. For example, in the argument "All humans are mortal, Socrates is a human, therefore Socrates is mortal," an implicit premise is that if something is a human, it is mortal. Another example is in the argument "If it is raining, the ground is wet. The ground is wet, therefore it is raining," the implicit premise is that the only way the ground can be wet is if it is raining.

Why is it necessary for a mortal to pacify Telepinu in the story Telepinu?

In the story of Telepinu, it is necessary for a mortal to pacify the god because Telepinu's anger leads to chaos and a cessation of fertility in the land. His withdrawal causes crops to wither, animals to become unproductive, and overall disorder in nature. By appeasing Telepinu, the mortal restores balance and harmony, ensuring the prosperity of the community and the continuation of life. Thus, the act of pacifying him is crucial for the survival and well-being of society.


What is Logic?

Logic is the science of correct thinking. A classic definition is new and necessary reasoning. It's new because you didn't know the item before, and necessary because a correctly formulated syllogism has to be true if the bases are true. This syllogism is a well-known example: All men are mortal. Socrates is a man. Therefore, Socrates is mortal. We took two axioms and made a new and necessary conclusion.
