Connection:
finding a farm that doesn't use preservatives and isn't cruel to their animals.

Connection:
The biggest connection I can make to this red flag is the conspiracy that the medical industry or government is hiding the cure to cancer from the public. Still to this day is one of the biggest conspiracies being talked about and it just all depends on what you want to believe and what you know.

Connection: 
I feel the Bible is a great example of Proof by Verbosity because a lot of people try to argue what the bible stands for and how its wrong and some of the commandments or stories never happened. When trying to argue these there seems to be people who do believe in the bible throwing multiple facts in the argument making it near impossible to try to cover everything and make a reasonable argument back.]]> 2019-02-11 17:28:55 UTC https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/329987777 taylorandchantal https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/329987778 Definition: Throwing a topic in a conversation to try and distract from what the original issue was.

Connection:
In this video Trump supports and Immigrants are sat down and asked a variety of questions to see if they can see eye to eye. At 8:38 minutes in to the video, the statement "It should be easier to immigrate to America" made had brought together the first few people of each side and then the rest joined. At 11:38 the gentlemen than brings up religion which was never on the original topic and the conversation gets side tracked.

Connection:
Many people believe jesus or god was real without wanting to see that there is no scientific proof of them existing other than the stories that are written in the bible.

Connection:
An example I think relates to this is relieving pain in a simple matter with a device like the Dr. Ho stating it can relive pain so fast.

Connection:
A big topic for the unexplained is paranormal incidents, people cant seem to explain the events that happen to them]]> 2019-02-12 04:11:13 UTC https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/330187215 taylorandchantal https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/330187575 Definition: Whether on your belief in something your emotions connected to whatever the belief is can have a big impact on your belief as well.

Connection: 
Believing in Physics or mediums can be a big play in our emotions because during the sessions if they bring up for example a passed family member or something meaningful to us that they would never be able to know, your emotions then get tied into it and you are more likely going to believe now than before. A good example is the show Long Island Medium.]]> 2019-02-12 04:13:44 UTC https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/330187575 taylorandchantal https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/330188609 Focused on Post #9

Define Problem: Theresa is able to communicate with the little girls dad.

Gather Information: Theresa starts off with the dad figure coming through to her, mentioning the number 6 and everyday items like the sunglasses and the little girl and her mom make the rest of the connections and agree to other aspects Theresa brings up.

Evaluate Evidence: Theresa is a very well known medium since her show "Long Island Medium" aired on TLC and claims she can talk to the people who have passed over and has bookings and even shows and even in her show on TLC goes up to random people and gives them readings as well if something claims to come through. Many people probably believe but many people don't as some think mediums just ask very easy questions that lead the other person to connect the rest of the story.

Recognize Assumptions, Emotions, Biases: Anyone really making an appointment is looking for closer or even comfort knowing their passed loved one is okay and happy wherever they are and just would like to hear anything.

Synthesize Evidence, Identify Alternatives: either A) Theresa can actually communicate with the people passed over or B) Shes a complete fake and is just doing it for money 

Select Best Alternative: In my personal opinion I am on both sides of the fence because most questions are generic to ask that let the other person make the connections themselves but also some of the things Theresa brings up that are just way to personal it makes me think really how can she know that? ]]> 2019-02-12 04:19:37 UTC https://padlet.com/taylorandchantal/xgwzpbdqbfh6/wish/330188609
