What is Bayesian belief? (Part 1)
<p>If someone says, “<em>I believe in science</em>”, what do you think of this statement? Initially, I found it funny because science is not something we believe, but something we pursue for the understanding of the natural world based on evidence, mainly through observation, right? But I am starting to wonder, if what I am trying to understand is based on evidence, don’t I need enough evidence to convince myself or believe firmly about what I am trying to understand?</p>
<p>For example, if you are a prosecutor who needs to convince jurors that the accused is guilty of a crime, you need to bring enough evidence (beyond a reasonable doubt in U.S.) that leads to conviction or strong belief that a charge (indictment) is right.</p>
