         <description><![CDATA[<div>Definition:<br>The Appeal to Authority red flag is when someone who appears to be in authority like a celebrity or doctor endorses a product or idea and leads people to believe that it must be true or safe, because that person in authority said so.<br><br>Connection:<br>This video connects to the pseudoscience red flag appeal to authority because it is clear that they use doctors in white coats to make people believe that Camel cigarettes are safer than other cigarettes because more doctors smoke that brand. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Definition: <br>The Ancient Wisdom red flag is about believing that people from ancient times possessed more wisdom than modern day people, which is not true. <br><br>Connection:<br>This article connects with the red flag ancient wisdom because it shows that there are many ancient cultures that practiced human sacrifice and they believed that they were accomplishing something, but just because people in ancient times practiced this, does not mean they had some greater wisdom than we do and does not mean we should do it today.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Defintion:<br>A product claiming to be "all natural" does not necessarily mean that it is safer or healthier, and this claim is used to often distract people.<br><br>Connection:<br>This article connects with the red flag "all natural" because it explains and defines it showing that most foods and health products with this title do not have any actual benefit or proven testing.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <link>https://padlet.com/joshua_rubinger/ai9b4vjfx2j1/wish/330144489</link>
         <description><![CDATA[<div>Definiton: <br>When something can not be explained, people's imaginations can fill the void. <br><br>Connection:<br>This video can connect with the reason for belief unexplained because it shows 10 different situations where weird things happen and there is not really a logical explanation for them. When things are left unexplained by science, people tend to believe it is because of something paranormal. </div>]]></description>
