And the other person keeps going "Why, that's dumb."
May I point out that I said no such thing, and that if a curious person actually asked what all this "faith" thing is that that IS the answer to their curiosity?
Also in what part did I actually try and disprove it? All I've done is ask what it is. If you consider that enough of a 'threat' to its existence then maybe you should reconsider your level of tolerance for those types of questions.
Because I said so works as well as anything else.
...What? No it doesn't. That increases the minimum message length by too much. And incidentally, even if it works as well as anything else, that doesn't mean that a better system of thinking about epistemology doesn't come out in the future (...or does exist).
