Connection: Alex jones is very well known for spouting ridiculous conspiracy theories, like the Sandy Hook shooting being fake and many of his millions of followers take it as fact. ]]> 2018-03-05 20:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238338679 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238338891 Definition: Something old, such as old medical remedies that have been disproven by science are taken real or that they actually work just because people used to use them. 
Connection: Crystal healing therapy is an example of this because even though there is no scientific evidence that this works many people still believe it has healing capabilities.]]> 2018-03-05 20:20:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238338891 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238338979 Definition: This is normally a product of some sort thats claims to be all natural. The product may be a natural but that does not mean it is good for you.
Connection: There are many "all natural" supplements that promise a "detox" such as a colon detox, but in reality they can strip you of healthy gut and intestinal bacteria.]]> 2018-03-05 20:20:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238338979 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339092 Definition: This is when you get the illusion of proof or fact through information overload in order to get the appearance of comprehensiveness and or facts. 
Connection: Donald Trump is a good example of this because he says randomness and uses a lot of words to get even his most basic points across.]]> 2018-03-05 20:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339092 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339211 Definition: This is when people take correlation as fact instead of causation.
Connection: Big tobacco companies used this type of excuse a lot in order to avoid regulation by saying the science is not definitive yet.]]> 2018-03-05 20:20:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339211 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339310 Definition: Ideologies are a set of ideas that you are either taught as a child like a specific religion or something you are lead to believe by other means.
Connection: An example of this are Jehovah's witnesses because due to their beliefs they can not take in blood or blood products even in order to save their lives. they also are not allowed to donate blood to others. ]]> 2018-03-05 20:21:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339310 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339553 Definition: People develop an emotional connection to someone or something, and this connection may cloud their own judgement. 
Connection: An example of this would be the Anti-vaccine movement due to the fact people have developed and emotional connection to the cause, because they believe that their child got autism from vaccines even though there is no scientific evidence that supports those claims. ]]> 2018-03-05 20:21:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339553 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339636 Definition: This is the act of finding patterns or meaningful images in everyday objects. This happens because the human brain works in a way that seeks out patterns.
Connection: This phenomena is extremely relevant when seeing faces because human a extremely good at it. For example this rock on mars makes you think of a human face. This picture then made people believe that there was intelligent life on mars even though there is not. ]]> 2018-03-05 20:21:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339636 ibbitsonjohn0 https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339784 2018-03-05 20:22:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ibbitsonjohn0/zrigsjduhtzu/wish/238339784
