It's funny how we use methods and principles as criteria for evaluating others arguments to guide our own constructive arguments of our own. If we never listened to the way others explain their reasoning's then we would not be able to evaluate what they are saying and build on that topic. We create idea's from building off of others thoughts that we have heard. I don't mean necessarily copying word for word but we create new thoughts from listening to others.
That poses the question, how were the first arguements and statements explained and put forward? How can you explain something thoroughly if you dont have anything to compare it to?
