    Are you not trying to educate yourself as best as possible, given the information available?

      Of course, but questionable or unsubstantiated reports don’t suddenly become 100% credible simply because they are the only information available.

          The person I responded to literally said that they would take the report “at face value”, which means you accept it unquestioningly.

            You accepting it doesn’t imply that the source is credible; you just don’t have any alternative.
