Simplified Meaning:
When you strongly believe in something, it can be frustrating when people use weak or poor arguments to support that belief. It feels like these bad arguments can make the belief look silly or less important. Imagine you think exercise is really important for health. Then, someone says you should exercise because it makes you grow taller. This is a poor argument because exercise doesn’t make you grow taller. This makes others think you're not serious about the real benefits of exercise, like making muscles stronger and reducing stress. It’s important to support your beliefs with good, solid reasons, so others understand and respect what you believe. If you care about something, spend time learning good reasons to back it up.
