Reflective judgment involves recognizing that although absolute certainty may not be possible, some judgments are more valid than others based on evidence and reasoning. Option A reflects a more immature way of thinking called pre-reflective judgment, where one only considers evidence that supports their existing beliefs. Option B reflects a relativistic way of thinking, which is also less mature, that assumes all opinions are equally valid regardless of evidence. Option C reflects a more emotional way of thinking, which is not necessarily reflective or rational.
