Fideistic: to believe what one considers one has to believe under the cover of dogmatic data, without asking whether this will convince or “hold water”; dialectical: to deal with a particular point by isolating it and intensifying it, without asking whether this is suitable in itself, and compatible with what one previously said, or with other points that are just as valid.
