I haven't studied Aumann's agreement theorem, but according to the Wikipedia article it assumes "Bayesian rationalists with common priors".
The article goes on to say that "the assumption of common priors is a rather strong one and may not hold in practice", but according to Robin Hansen this is the case when Bayesians adhere to a certain pre-rationality condition: ". . . Bayesians who agree enough about the origins of their priors must have the same priors" [1].
Will Bayesians ALWAYS agree enough about the origins of their priors?
