Question Answered step-by-step Hiroyuki Suzuki was formerly a member of the Sakaume gumi, an… Hiroyuki Suzuki was formerly a member of the Sakaume gumi, an independent crime family in Japan known for its role in gambling. Mr. Suzuki’s wife Mariko broke her kneecap, and when Mariko went to church the next Sunday, the minister put his hands on her broken knee and pronounced it healed. She walked away from church that day. Mr. Suzuki regarded her religion as a silly waste of timebut he was fascinated by the recovery of her knee. “In gambling,” he said, “you use dice. Dice are made from bone. If God could heal her bone, I figured he could probably assist my dice and make me the best dice thrower in all of Japan.” Mr. Suzuki’s gambling skills did improve, enabling him to pay off his debts. He now says his allegiance is to Jesus.Stephanie Strom, “He Watched over His Rackets,” The New York Times, 22 June 1999 what is the fallacy being used?
