High School Philosophy Argument

Please read the following passage and do two things.

1. On one page, make clear exactly what the argument is. What is the ultimate conclusion? What are the premises? What are the sub-conclusions, if any, and how are all the premises related to the ultimate conclusion? (It may help to use a diagram at some point.)

2. On a separate pages, 1-2, (12-point font, normal margins, double-spaced), evaluate the argument. Assume that the speaker is a member of the class, and that the audience is the rest of the class.
