Question; what the hell is an "evidentialist" and why is it being implied to be a Bad Thing?

Someone who thinks evidence is the best basis for epistemology. Unexplained.

Do u suspect they believe it or is it just a proxy of "I can't back my claims, but believe in them, so I'll dismiss importance of evidence"
-
Dunno about Helen, but I'd answer "both" - people often have multiple reasons for acting the way they do.

Heh. That's just spiffy. The entire project of science tells us our intuitions are suspect at best.
