Counselor: To be kind to someone, one must want that person to prosper. Yet, even two people who dislike each other may nevertheless treat each other with respect. And while no two people who dislike each other can be fully content in each other’s presence, any two people who do not dislike each other will be kind to each other.
Summary
The stimulus can be diagrammed as follows:
Notable Valid Inferences
If you are fully content with one’s presence, then you want them to prosper.
If you like someone, then you want them to prosper.
If you are fully content with one’s presence, then you are kind to them.
A
Some people who like each other are not fully content in each other’s presence.
Could be true. Liking someone is the necessary condition of being fully content, but being fully content isn’t a necessary condition of liking someone. It could be the case that people who like each other are not fully content in each other’s presence.
B
Some people who are fully content in each other’s presence do not want each other to prosper.
Must be false. As shown in the diagram, everyone who is fully content in someone’s presence wants that person to prosper.
C
Some people who treat each other with respect are not fully content in each other’s presence.
Could be true. The only thing that we know about respect is that it is possible for two people who dislike each other to treat each other with respect. It could be the case that people who aren’t fully content with each other’s presence can treat each other with respect.
D
Some people who want each other to prosper dislike each other.
Could be true. Wanting someone to prosper is a necessary condition of liking someone, but liking someone isn’t a necessary condition of wanting someone to prosper. It is possible to want someone to prosper while disliking them.
E
Some people who are kind to each other do not treat each other with respect.
Could be true. If someone is kind to someone, we know that they want that person to prosper, but that is the only thing we can definitively say. It is possible to be kind to someone and not respect them.
