Ok I admit it

[Esquilax]

Esquilax makes a good point.

Let me try to illustrate the concept. I'll use Esquilax as an example of a rational thinker

Esquilax, the pants I'm wearing today are purple.
Based on the evidence I've given, Esquilax is probably agnostic about the colour of my pants. He hasn't enough evidence to really know, but he can make some intelligent inferences based on the likelihood, how much he trusts me etc.

So, es, please assign an approximate percentage value to how certain you are I'm wearing purple pants today.

Mundane, regular purple pants? Not in any way magical? Do you actually own a pair of purple pants, or is it merely possible that you could be wearing them?

At the moment I'll just play it safe and give you a fifty/fifty on your chances of purple-pantsitude, but if I really needed an answer, I'd keep asking questions like the ones above to increase or decrease the likelihood. And of course, you could, if you wanted to, provide photographic evidence of them pants.

That's how this process should work, Jesus Lover. Investigation before you commit to an answer, and before you find sufficient evidence then the claim has not fulfilled its burden of proof.
