My seventh post.

My seventh post: How do values ​​influence your critical thinking? 

When we are children we begin to acquire knowledge based on what we see and hear, we do not invent, we learn from others, but as we grow older we become rational people, and little by little we create our own opinion, we create our positions regarding controversial issues, we adopt likes and dislikes and that's when we develop our critical thinking, but if the people I learned from have different opinions than mine, I'm wrong?

Oh, of course not, congratulations! you have freed yourself from being a machine that absorbs everything that it hears and you have become a human being that thinks and analyzes for itself.

But what is my critical thinking based on? How do I have one? I have it? Is my thinking good? This is where the values ​​you grew up with play a role. What is your concept of respect? Concept of empathy? The one with honesty? Do you even know them?

Everyone defines their values ​​according to learned, and was taught,  for example, are you for or against equal marriage?

A person without knowledge of what respect is: "No, of course not, God made the man be with the woman, a relationship between the same sex is not possible, I hate it."

Respectful and secular person: Of course, it is not something I should decide, love is free, everyone has the right to feel as they please, and even if they do not agree, how does it affect me? I have no reason to decide and impose on the love of others.

We can see in this comparison of people that their values ​​define their opinions, sometimes what we believe is correct is not correct and we promote erroneous ideas in those around us, for this reason, it is essential to open our minds, leave so ingrained ideas in the past that we had and revolutionize our concepts, your opinion based on your erroneous judgments can bring severe controversies, investigate what it is to be secular, respectful, honest, resilient, humble and others and then rebuild your mind.

 My fifth post: GMO pros and cons. According to the non-GMO project: "A GMO, or genetically modified organism, is a plant, animal, microorganism, or another organism whose genetic makeup has been modified in a laboratory using genetic engineering or transgenic technology. This creates combinations of plant, animal, bacterial, and virus genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods". So, what is the problem with GMOs? Since everything has good characteristics, it also has bad characteristics. Pros:  1- Many crops have been genetically modified, in this way they obtain a gene that generates poison for pests, this keeps the harvest alive, and do not worry, the poison is not lewd for humans. 2-There is another gene in crops that have been modified to make them resistant to harsh environments, such as droughts.  3- Even genetic modification is used to improve the flavor of some crops. SUMMARY ACCORDING HEALTH LINE:  The main concerns aroun...

  My tenth post: The death penalty. According with DPIC, More than 8500 people have been sentenced since the 1970s. The death penalty discourages criminals from committing serious crimes. And according to the Washington state government. The methods of execution have gradually become more humane over the years, so the argument that the death penalty is cruel and unusual is not valid. Without the death penalty, some criminals would continue to commit crimes. The death penalty is not revenge, it is retribution. Retribution is not the same as revenge. Retribution is a necessary part of the punishment process. The legal system is constantly evolving to maximize justice. Just because the legal system can make a wrong decision does not mean that the death penalty is wrong. Alphonse Karr says: "I agree that societies decree abolish the death penalty; but that murderers begin to abolish it", but today I say that I am in favor of murderers and criminals being seen in the same way th...

 My second post. My second post: what is my position about feminism? First of all, what is feminism or the feminist movement? According to the international women's development agency (IWDA), feminism is "  about all genders having equal rights and opportunities. It’s about respecting diverse women’s experiences, identities, knowledge, and strengths, and striving to empower all women to realize their full rights. It’s about leveling the playing field between genders, and ensuring that diverse women and girls have the same opportunities in life available to boys and men". Being this a movement that seeks to revolutionize the perspectives of stereotypes imposed on women in the most remote times, why is there so much controversy and reluctance, even by women themselves towards this movement? I think that we should all be feminists, for the 10 women who die in Mexico every day, for Fernanda, for Claudia, for Susi, for all the women who have been abused and those who have not,...
