Assume that a claim of facts is something that is true or not true and claims of value implies that something is good or bad, or more or less desirable. Claims of policy promotes the concept that one course of action is superior to another. (Note: A persuasive claim is an opinion, idea, or assertion.)
Just a Thought: If you were involved in making a claim similarly to the situations above, without council, how would you evaluate them as a unit? Would your thought process be the same with council?
NOTE: Wisdom without counsel can go astray, but in the multitude of counselors, guidelines are established. But when two are three are gathered, people with wisdom understand that there are also other people who are wise. (Author Unknown)
