Explain the logical flaw in Cotton's explanation as to how Burroughs could say the Lord's Prayer.

Cotton said that in order to be acquitted, Mr. Burroughs should recite our father as an ordained minister, which he was not. This is a logical failure, because it was not necessary to be an ordained minister to recite our Father with the same composure and fluency that Mr. Burroughs did.

Explanation:

Mr. Burroughs was accused of witchcraft and sentenced to hanging. However, before his execution he made an eloquent speech in the name of his innocence and recited the Our Father with an eloquence and admirable composure. At that time, it was believed that witches could not recite our Father and this made people cry out that the execution would not happen. That was when Mr. Cotton Mather claimed that Mr. Burroughs did not recite our father as an ordained minister, since he was not one and it was normal for the devil to pretend to be an angel of light. After that the execution continued.
