 Your textbook(Think-critical thinking and logic skills for everyday life)  talks about the mindset referred to as “relativism” which tries to assert that all opinions have equal weight. Yet is this true? In this week’s discussions, let us consider the issue of relativism and how it might relate to the challenge of critical thinking. Specifically, address the following questions:

***What are some of the potential problems and dangers of a relativist thinking? How can we negotiate the dangers of relativist thinking while at the same time work to be collaborative and open-minded thinkers? What would this type of thinking look like?***

As you answer these question, make sure to include examples from your own background and experience to illustrate your point.

Discussion Expectations
You should have a minimum of three posts during the week, including a main post of at least 250 words
