But friends of reasons donβt have any issues here that friends of evidence do not, nor any differences in their resources for what to say about it. This shouldnβt be a surprise because the reasons to believe are just the evidence.

I donβt think these questions are actually so independent. The author of a serial novel can shape the essence of their novel by what they write in later chapters. You can shape the narrative of your life by what you do next. What Americaβs essence is *depends* on what we do going forward.
