Why I've never believed in 'To each his/her own'

It is an irrational statement to say 'to each is own' and the religious folks use it all the time as an excuse for their false beliefs. I would like to recommend Eliezer Yudkowsky's brilliant piece 'what is evidence' from the fine blog lesswrong.com.

p.s: I love the way this guy elucidates things: http://lesswrong.com/lw/kg/expecting_short_inferential_distances/
