The amount of evidence we need to believe something as fact is a sliding scale depending on how much we were predisposed to believe said fact in the first place.
Take food for an example. You see a perfectly cooked steak sitting on your plate and you probably don't even need a bite, or a whiff, to make you believe it's going to taste amazing. On the other hand, if a new dish is introduced that is presented in a less appetizing way you may not believe your taste buds on the first bite.
