Explain how scientific knowledge and reasoning can us make difficult decisions.

 Scientific reasoning consists of observation, forming a workable hypothesis and arriving at a conclusion. Almost without exception major scientific discoveries were made and are being made today based on these same precepts. It only seems logical when an individual makes a difficult decision he/she will apply all or part of these processes. Let;s say that you want to make someone;s acquaintance to possibly become serious. Certainly, you would begin by quietly observing them, then you might make a hypothesis, "This person might make a good companion for me." Then in your conclusion you would test your hypothesis and proceed as directed. THis may be a bit simplistic, and I hope that it helps.
