Bayesian humility∗

Say that an agent is epistemically humble if she is less than certain that her opinions will converge to the truth, given an appropriate stream of evidence. Is such humility rationally permissible? According to the orgulity argument (Belot 2013): the answer is “yes, ” but long-run convergence-to-the-truth theorems force Bayesians to answer “no.” That argument has no force against Bayesians who reject countable additivity as a requirement of rationality. Such Bayesians are free to count even extreme humility as rationally permissible.
