This is a red flag due to the fact that scientists make hypothesis and no one can tell them they are wrong because science is believed to always have the opportunity to prove something is true and false so if something is proven wrong over and over then it is most likely not valid hypothesis and their method has failed. That means that one scientist has failed but it could lead to the success of somebody else using a different hypothesis. ]]> 2018-03-04 21:00:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237851670 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237857256 Empty edicts- absence of empiracle evidence. This is a red flag because it basically is a statement which you say and everybody is supposed to know what it is without any supporting evidence for example saying chocolate makes you live longer. ]]> 2018-03-04 21:42:02 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237857256 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237862328 Charges of conspiracy collusion and connivance. The red flag tries to make it look like we can not trust the evidence based on various conspiracy theories which usually end up false. For example telling people that doctors thrive off people being sick so they can make a living off of people misery or suffering. when in reality people are going to be sick and get sick no matter what so doctors are needed to help people like me and you to understand what is happening to us when we get sick. ]]> 2018-03-04 22:21:57 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237862328 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237866127 Stressing status and appealing to authority. This is when a person tries to quote authority figures and disregards the evidence or facts that make their quote or statement wrong. For example they are one person and just because one person says something is true does not always make it true. People for thousands of years have proved other people wrong and that will continue to be a trend in many years to come. ]]> 2018-03-04 22:51:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237866127 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237868973 Wishful thinking- Favoring fantasy over fact. One of the things that make this hard to avoid is because we use this on ourselves all the time. we always want to achieve better and strive for more out of life. It is also easier to use wishful thinking rather then negative thinking because it helps us make our goals and achievements a reality instead of always a dream. The reason this can be bad is because we get ourselves all hyped up and want it so bad that when things don't work out it hits people harder because they have thought about it over and over. ]]> 2018-03-04 23:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/237868973 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238327509 I believe the reason for video games benefiting us is it helps us with reaction times thinking fast and critically depending on what game you usually play. For me I play various games and I have noticed they help me think faster and help me react faster in everyday life. 

This Video explains some of the reasons playing video games actually helps us with various tasks and shapes our brains in different ways from the normal adult. ]]> 2018-03-05 19:59:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238327509 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238341415 I personally think people like to be noticed because it gives you a sense of being needed or wanted in a different way then just being told you are loved by your family and friends. I think it helps you become the person you are and helps you to chose what aspects you want to keep about yourself and what you don't like. 

People need attention and like to be noticed for various reasons. we all thrive off of it some need it more then others and that's what I believe.]]> 2018-03-05 20:25:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238341415 kylecondie24 https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238344877 The reason suits make people look more professional is completely opinion based. Personally I have always wanted to be the guy that has 12 suits is successful with his life and is very good at his job. Suits for me just round out a person any one can wear a suit but I just want to wear one to really fulfill my dream and look good in one.]]> 2018-03-05 20:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kylecondie24/h3cg443hn2ib/wish/238344877
