All claims have varying levels of credibility until disproved (ie until we can be certain they do not exist), be it logically, empirically or both, that does not mean we should believe them! Far from it, we should be extremely skeptical of all claims of significance and withhold judgement on them until evidence presents it's self (if ever!). We should also be active in persuading others to withhold judgement on what are honestly unknowable topics - This is harder than it might seem because of the emotional pull that people have towards specific ideals. Imho our emotional response to a subject is completely irrelevant if it cannot be shown to be independently true, or at the very least if it can't be proved to be true, you can still reasonably believe it unless there are contradictory propositions that have the same weight of the same type of evidence supporting them (such as the anecdotal evidence supporting revelation).
I hope that makes sense.
