ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Credulity

Credulity is when you believe something without questioning it or needing evidence to back it up. It's like accepting something to be true just because someone told you so. For example, if your parents said that candy was bad for you, so you don't eat it, even if there's no evidence to back it up, then you're being credulous.
