Reason for Belief #2 Perception & Observation

# data[].attributes.body
Definition:

Perception and observation is when we begin to believe something due to our 5 senses: seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and smelling. The problem with this is that, often times, things are not always as they appear to be and allows for flaws in an individual's beliefs.

Connection:
In the image below, your brain will switch between seeing a old woman and a young woman. This will depend the way an individual perceives and observes the image.

Reason for Belief # 3 Emotional Connection

# data[].attributes.body
Definition:
After certain events an individual's emotions make them believe in something that they want to believe in. This can affect logical thought and stray the individual away from reason.

Connection:
The image below shows a ghost visiting a child by their bedside. Some individuals, especially kids will believe that deceased loved ones that come to visit them are trying to tell them something. This is an example of an emotional connection because it leads the individual to believe they can actually see and talk to that loved one.

Confirmation Bias is when an individual or group of people believe in something to such a degree that they become blind to other information or ideas that may disprove their beliefs and seek out information that supports their beliefs.

Connection:
Gun control is such a controversial topic due to the severity of the outcomes that guns can have. In the United States, guns are very poorly regulated and very easy to purchase. Even with gun violence and mass shootings being a huge issue in the USA, many people still believe that everyone should have the right to keep and bare arms. These people are blind to the fact that mass shootings with guns like assault rifles are happening at an alarming rate and could possibly be avoided with stricter gun control and background checks

Stating information that that is irrelevant to the subject in order to distract another person from the facts and proof.

Products using the claim to be all natural to convince consumers that it is healthy, when in reality, all natural does not always mean good.

Connection:

Although caffeine can be found naturally within substances such as coffee beans, it is known as a natural product that will be viewed as good to consumers because it is "all natural". However, studies have shown that consuming high doses of caffeine can have many negative health effects on the human body.

Caffeine potentially leads to some spinal bone loss in postmenopausal women if they typically drink more than three cups, or 300 mg of caffeine, a day, but don't get enough calcium in their diet, says Linda Massey, emeritus professor of nutrition at Washington State University. An older woman should make sure she gets at least 800 mg of calcium daily - through food or supplements - to offset caffeine's effect on calcium, adds Bess Dawson-Hughes, M.D., director of the Bone Metabolism Laboratory at Tufts University in Boston.

Coffee itself can also mess with your stomach. If you have problems with acid reflux or heartburn, then coffee and even tea might not be right for you.

And if you have high cholesterol and you don't want your coffee adding to the problem, you need to use a paper filter to trap the cafestol, a compound in coffee that raises LDL cholesterol levels, says van Dam.

Here's what you need to know if you have a touchy tummy

Coffee's not your friend if you're prone to heartburn. Coffee is highly acidic and is irritating to the gastrointestinal tract. Switching to decaf won't help: In fact some research has found that decaf increases stomach acid even more than caffeinated coffee. Neither will switching methods of brewing or roasting. Avoiding coffee is the only solution.

Caffeine's not your friend if you have acid reflux. Caffeine seems to be the main culprit by relaxing the sphincter muscle that normally keeps stomach acid from bubbling up the esophagus. Decaf coffee has significantly less of a reflux effect, studies have found.

Now, the good news about caffeine (and, of course, coffee)

Caffeine has been shown to protect against a host of problems. Some studies have found that those who drink lots of coffee (but not decaf) seem to be four to eight times less likely to develop Parkinson's disease, according to the NIH's National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, and "that is more likely to be due to caffeine" than to any nutrients in coffee, says van Dam.
