        PREMISE:  Good Malkioni go to Solace after they die.
        PREMISE:  Saints are Good Malkioni.

        CONCLUSION:  Saints are in Solace.

Nice and simple, but premise no: 2 is, not wrong, but misleading. Replace with - "saints are extraordinary Malkioni"

Conclusion becomes: It's not self evident that saints are in Solace.

And these premises and conclusions still hinge on the Malkioni beliefs, and the malkioni don't _know_, they just have their faith.
