LEQ

"We know the truth, not only by the reason but by the heart ."
~ Blaise Pascal (1632-1662) French mathematician and philosopher.

Think :
What is truth?
What is reason?
What does Pascal mean when he said, "by the heart"?
What truth does a mathematician rely on?
What truth does a philosopher rely on?

Write :
How do you evaluate credibility?

      Credibility is apart of most things. Credibility is believeability and trust. If you have credibility then you are most likely to be trust worthy. When you are "able to be trusted" then you have just passed another level in your life.
     I evaluate credibility, by looking at some peoples weaknesses or strengths. For example if I know you are not a very good liar i will look at some things and see what your actions are like . That way i know what to look for the next time you try tyo lie to me. Also if I know you are a good liar I will try to get with my sources and try to pull out facts before actually talking to you.
      Everyone wants credibility. But only a handful of people have it, either because they are nottelling the truth or lying , or they are good at both but just get caught anyways. Credibility should have to be earned not given to.



This is one of my LEQ's that i did in my critical thinking class and i made a 5 out of 5 on it i hope this taught you something about "credibility"
