Of course there aren't. You can trivially imagine programming a computer to print, "2+2=5" and no verbal argument will persuade it to give the correct answer -

You can't persuade rocks either. Don't you think this might be just a wee bit of a strawman of the views of people who believe in universally compelling arguments?
