Topics with assumptions
I would think that certain topics require one to assume something in order to argue at all--for example, some topics might require one to assume the existence of God. Then and only then would it make sense to argue the topic. As long as the assumptions are known, then after that the logic should be as rigorous as possible. You would want to keep the assumptions to a minimum.
