When I was a materialist, I would immediately lose epistemic respect for anyone that expressed any spiritual beliefs.
Then I started having lots of experiences that forced me to discredit materialism and embrace some spiritual beliefs.
Now I don't judge someone's whole epistemics by that binary criteria anymore. But I have empathy for those that do judge in either direction, because I understand where they are coming from.
Feedbackloop-first Rationality is such a good term!
On my personal notes I might refer to it as Loop Rationality, as I quite like how that sounds.
I am thrilled reading this post. I've been practicing something along this for some years now, and the dynamics described here match my experience. I imagine one could write a whole sequence about this!
