Rats, I should have added that the complaint the #1s have about the #2s worldview is that it results in "just so" stories whereas the #1s point to evidence.

The #2s protest that their field does not allow for evidence without absence because it is a quantization of a continuum - pieces of evidence here and there from which they derive a continuum (connect the dots).

My #1 worldview is reflected in my personal epistemology by ranking the opinions of experts as 11th of 12.

I suspect you have a rather low value for the opinions of experts as well, Quix.

Seems to me as I have been following this thread that there's a whole lot of expert-ing going on around here, regardless of where it falls in---what's that word?---epistemology.

Lots of big words, too.

Lots of long posts, and words in bold and caps and colors, too. (which impedes and impairs my reading abilities).

You mean it flowing all over the pages in CAPS, colors and exclamation points might give you that impression? What a surprise! LOL.

Yup, Yup!

Given Jesus' response to the pharisees, I think I'm in good company.
