Psychology is a "fuzzy" science, but it's still a science.
 * 1) 1 The link I have posted below is a link to a website the discuss the theory of a "gay gene", the article goes on to say that if it was indeed a gene then, homosexuals would have fewer children than heterosexuals, so that any genetic cause of homosexuality would have been selected out of the gene pool a long time ago. There is also a study mentioned from the Journal of Sexual Medicine, that claims that they found a link between homosexuality and female fertility. Unfortunately the reason that Psychology is a "fuzzy" science is because there is no real way to prove any of these theories, because in doing so would mean preforming morally wrong experiments.

You are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts.
 * 1) 2 I recently watched a youtube video on nail growing tips, the girl in the video goes into detail about her nail growth, and the products that she uses. One of the products she uses is burt's bees lemon butter cuticle creme, at approximately 2:23 in her video she states that the cuticle creme "stimulates cuticle growth" she supported no data to back this up.

Science runs on careful criticism.
 * 1) 3 In class last week we learned about "brain gym", it was probably the most ridiculous idea i have ever heard on, and the fact that people are actually buying into this is just said. I believe i have found the youtube video that my class watched, the reporter is completely ripping into the creator of "brain gym", this is a prefect example of science runs on careful criticism.

There's power in precise terms.

Correlation is not causation.

More of something good isn't always better.

Beware the plausible, especially if it works.

Lack of evidence doesn't mean it's false.
