Topic #3

There are several more topics I feel we need to discuss further. One of them is appeal to emotion. I feel if we learn more about this and do more practices on them we would all become so much better in persuading or conveying our feelings toward others. For example, if you trying to persuade a judge in an appeal then you should most definitely know how to appeal to pity or to his sense of justice if you felt you were wronged. Being able to know how to use these appeals to emotion not only helps you in persuading others but it can also be used to protect yourself from being targeted by them as well. For instance, a lot of advertisements campaign for politics use appeal to fear to getting you to do what they want. Being able to recognize it would help you to make the right choice in voting instead of being manipulated by them.
