Evidentiary based reasoning precludes beliefs.

Do you have any evidence to support that claim, or is it to be accepted as an axiom?

As I have no beliefs and require evidence of any assertion to even consider it's validity...yes.

That wasn't a yes or no question.

That wasn't a yes and no answer.

"Yes" wasn't a yes and no answer?

To the point, nobody can escape having at least one belief not founded on evidence. Even the empiricist has to believe that his perception of the evidence is valid and that past results are relevant for future trials. You have to infer the connection, take it on faith that the order of things will remain the same between the time when you observed a result and the time when you run another test.

See!? Whilst some of you try to impose "belief" into those around you...I'm busy trying to eradicate every aspect of it from my life...Fact!

Good luck...

Break a leg!

Sorry..."believe" what "you" like. I have ZERO!!! beliefs.
Don't "believe" me...???
NOT my problem.

Do not question that which you cannot, or most apparently, will not understand.
The fact that you chose to pick a single word from an answer that has 17 (words), only shows that you have cherry picked your conversation.
This is not a debate.
Just because words like "faith" and "belief" are insidiously pervasive, still doesn't require me to give a single f*ck about them....
Good Day...
