I am leaning towards Bayesianism ... give me reason to believe otherwise

alright

I recently found out that frequentist hypothesis testing has its own subjective inputs (in terms of stopping rules as opposed to priors) and that Bayesian analysis gives P(hypothesis | data), what you actually want to know, rather than P(data | hypothesis)

so what are the advantages of frequentist analysis over the Bayesian approach; I'm not ready to throw it out the window entirely
