They would try to cover this up by protecting themselves from their bad consciences and suffering. They will try to trick themselves that…

Though it can help us to deduct conclusions from minute amounts of information with shocking accuracy, it can also be bad when so easily altered by simple mind tricks. So when should we trust our instincts and when should we gather more information?

What is it about the current American system that is stagnating progress? It seems as if we have been politically stagnated for years. While Asia skyrockets in progress and technology, we seem to be moving backward. Our governmental process seems to be more about scandal then producing great policies that will move us forward in the world. As we view our once mighty industry, all we see is the rust belt and jobs that have moved off shore. Our cities seem to be stagnated by urban decay. Is this…

Plato has a deep understanding of human nature and perception. He uses his literary work the “Allegory of the Cave” to support his theory of forms. He argues that the material world, the world where we use our senses, is an unreliable way to view the world. Relying on your physical senses alone makes you blind. You are not allowing yourself to see the entire world if you only use your senses. The only way to see the true world is through abstract or philosophical thought he called ideas. Ideas…

Each individual is born with there own genetics, with the exclusion of identical twins, and every person has a mind of their own.

The reasoning on how we know everyone is different is because of scientists who devoted their time into studying the science of behavior and the…

Often seen in medical shows, like Grey’s Anatomy, CPR is a real lifesaving technique that saves many lives daily. Medical shows tend to be more glamorous and not as grounded as the realistic profession is. A common misconception with CPR and television is that a few minutes with CPR a patient is well.

Sometimes the speaker is at fault for expecting the listener to keep information to themselves, once it’s in another persons mind and or in a spot where it can be easily accessed again, then that’s that. Over the last 6 years I honestly can say I probably deserve a lot of this silent treatment, silent…

Having class discussions on the theories we read greatly helped my ability to think critically. Sometimes the theory clicked right away, but other times it wasn’t until I heard the connections that other students made that it finally connected in my own mind.
