Weaver wrote:You do have evidentiary reasons to believe the shop will be there tomorrow - you have seen it before, there are physical laws to the universe regarding life of material constructions, and you haven't seen anything to indicate that the shop will NOT be there - fire trucks, loud explosions, etc.

Therefore, you can conclude that the highest likelihood is that the shop will be there when you go to buy milk.


ok now expand the milk shop example to im going to go an a random holiday, pick a spot on a map, where flights are under a hundred quid, and have a good time.

What evidence do you have that you will have a good time ?

You have no evidence. You make the claim to yourself and just do based on belief in your ability to have a good time.
