I wrote a thing on Carrier...yes I've seen that. I wrote a thing on Carrier's Bayes usage. Two years ago I had a debate with Lowder about it on Sec Outpost. It's on A priori, I will put it up today.Joseph Hinman (Metacrock)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06957529748541493998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363362.post-85513333594868316062016-03-10T06:39:17.350-08:002016-03-10T06:39:17.350-08:00I'm not either. But for me Bayes' Theorem ...I'm not either. But for me Bayes' Theorem itself is not mathematically difficult. It's basically an application of algebra to the axioms of probability. There are, however, entire worlds of Bayesian corollaries and related concepts that are presently quite beyond me. <br /><br />I do know that it's common for skeptics to employ a Bayesian version of Hume's argument to render Don McIntoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387665301048762546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363362.post-5067281711542017102016-03-09T09:09:01.218-08:002016-03-09T09:09:01.218-08:00I am no expert on anything mathematiocalI am no expert on anything mathematiocalJoseph Hinman (Metacrock)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06957529748541493998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363362.post-58874013508792194452016-03-09T06:22:29.915-08:002016-03-09T06:22:29.915-08:00I appreciate that, Joe. Yes, the interest in proba...I appreciate that, Joe. Yes, the interest in probability theory on the part of Secular Outposters and others is one of the reasons I posted this. For me apologetics is a valid ministry to skeptical souls, almost like missionary work. To "reach" them I have to learn their language. That said, I still have much to learn...Don McIntoshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387665301048762546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363362.post-27406316095334521442016-03-08T23:53:52.067-08:002016-03-08T23:53:52.067-08:00great post Don.
