Explore some of the most important questions on the road to Rome in a rational way using Bayes' theorem. In a certain sense this is like a "vote calculator", where you specify your views on certain observations and receive a 'verdict'. The whole point is to be aware of how these observations fit with the question/hypothesis you are exploring. We believe this is the most rational way to approach the complex questions where certainty is not possible.

How-to

Below is a chart of the different questions/hypotheses you can explore. Click a box to start exploring. You can choose to follow the flow of this chart, or not. It is up to you. You may choose to test the tutorial first, because some find it difficult to understand it right from the get-go. But, we promise this is not so difficult once you get the hang of it. Good luck!

The purpose of this is to share the averages we find, so that you can see how others think! We also want to make it possible for you to share your own views with others, if you want others to do the same test and compare results.
