Question:

How much evidence do you need?

If it turned out that something that you believed was inaccurate in some way, how much or what type of evidence would you need to revise your belief?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: It's logic.
We all have our rationalization points, some of us are a bit more rooted than others.

If I had a founding belief and you told me it was incorrect, I would require evidence and example of error followed by a working solution.

Slowly a transition would be made, like stepping into cold ocean water. Very cautious, we adjust.
