Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Answer to Question 2

- Relativism: the belief that the truth is relative to any individual or situation, and there is no objective, universal standard we can use to decide which beliefs make the most sense.
- Stage 2 of critical thinking: Anything Goes
- Although Stage 2 thinking may be appropriate in matters of taste, it is not appropriate in most areas of life where some beliefs are clearly more informed than others.
