NOUN: 1. Philosophy... The doctrine that probability is a sufficient basis for belief and action, since certainty in knowledge is unattainable. 2. Roman Catholic Church... The system of moral theology that applies when the lawfulness of an act is uncertain, by allowing an actor to follow an opinion favoring personal liberty if that opinion is solidly probable, even though an opposing opinion, favoring law, is more probable.
OTHER FORMS: probabilist -- ADJECTIVE & NOUN
I guess that, in addition to being a generalist, I'm also a probabilist.
