Answer:
A premise is a restatement of the conclusion.
Explanation:
Begging the Question
The given argument is an example of begging the question (also known as circular reasoning) because:
A premise is a restatement of the conclusion
The argument's conclusion is that "the Bible is the word of God." However, one of the premises used to support this conclusion is "the Bible is divinely inspired." This premise is essentially restating the conclusion in different words, rather than providing independent evidence to support the claim.
In a valid argument, the premises should provide new information that logically leads to the conclusion. In this case, the premise "the Bible is divinely inspired" does not add any new information beyond what is already stated in the conclusion. It is simply rephrasing the same idea, which is a logical fallacy known as begging the question.
The other options are not correct:
-The conclusion does not generalize a premise.
-The argument does not use a question-begging label, it uses the premise "the Bible is divinely inspired" to support the conclusion.
So, the correct answer is A premise is a restatement of the conclusion.
