I have to admit that once again I am confused with how the answer key and the principle line up. Writing about Tertullian's criticism of Trajan and Marcus Aurelius it appears that your terms are anything but clear. The "terms" "no restrictions on hunting them down" and "should not punish them when they are brought to your attention" appear to be somewhat similar terms but one with a "not" in front of it. Then, in the conclusion you introduce an apparently completely unrelated term, "Your policy is unjust."
This example does not appear to fit any of the forms given in the text. The best I can come up with is
If P then Q; If not P then not Q
Either P or not P
? (R)
OR
If P then Q; If R then S
Either P or S
Either Q or S (but a new term is introduced instead)
I really do want to understand this but quite frankly it is frustrating when the examples in the homework do not follow even closely the examples given in the text. Then, try to teach it to students. Forget it. I would really appreciate ANY help you can add to this particular situation and in general why the principles given in the text are not always followed through in the homework problems.
