| Abstract | By and large the author finds that the attempt to reconcile apparently conflicting beliefs is a driving force for pondering and, sometimes, for discovery. He concluded that, for many utility functions, if probability distributions are not too spread out, then a quadratic approximation fits quite well. In that case the mean-variance approximation to expected utility is quite good -- no matter what the shape of the distribution. This article will not discuss the application of mean-variance analysis to investment decisions, or Operations Research techniques he has developed for other practical decision problems. Rather, it will review Bayesanism as put forth by L. J. Savage; tell readers how the author knows he is a Bayesian; and apply Bayesianism to philosophical questions such as: Is there a God and, if so what is He, She or It like? |
