Question

One statement and two assumptions for the statement are given. Read the statement, think about the assumptions and mark the correct option which is implicit in the statement.
Statement I : Some people believe in the existence of god.
Arguments II : Not everything in this world is created by humans.
Arguments III : Human beings are imperfect.
A. Only argument I is implicit
B. Only argument II is implicit
C. Both arguments I and II are implicit
D. Neither I nor II are implicit
Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

• A. A
• B. B
• C. C
• D. D

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

To determine the correct assumption implicit in the statement, let's first understand the statement and the given arguments:

Statement I: Some people believe in the existence of god.

This statement suggests that a subset of people hold a belief in a divine entity or creator.

Argument II: Not everything in this world is created by humans.

This argument suggests that there are things in the world that exist without human creation, which might imply the existence of a superior creator like a god.

Argument III: Human beings are imperfect.

While this statement about human imperfection is generally true, it does not directly correlate to the belief in god or the statement in question. It doesn't support or challenge the existence of god by directly providing a reason for that belief.

Now, let’s evaluate the options:

• Option A: Only argument I is implicit.

  This is incorrect as there is no argument I in the prompt.

• Option B: Only argument II is implicit.

  This is correct because the statement that "not everything in this world is created by humans" can be an implicit reason for why some people believe in a god. It aligns with the idea of a higher power or divine intervention in the creation of non-human-made objects or entities.

• Option C: Both arguments I and II are implicit.

  This is incorrect because argument III does not support the statement about the belief in god.

• Option D: Neither I nor II are implicit.

  This is incorrect as we have identified that argument II can logically be tied to the belief in god.

Conclusion: Based on the reasoning provided, the correct answer is Option B: Only argument II is implicit.
