You are the one asserting that we should move the goal for some claims. How do you justify that? How do you determine when to start and when to stop moving the goal (or do you not stop moving it)?
The subject of the OP is epistemology or the study of how we know. And as I have said before, if the reasons are the same, I think it is reasonable to come to the same conclusion. Further, I think that for various reasons, we can grant a measure of faith in which we believe in addition.
Do you think that you have given me enough reason to believe that you have a cat?
Do you accept that I have a cat?
Do you accept that I have an invisible garage dragon?
Why or why not?
