For more information, see the Wikipedia article:

An a posteriori argument is one that relies on interpreting evidence and observable facts - "after evidence". This means that a posteriori arguments can be proved false, but also that they can be proved correct.

For this reason, a posteriori arguments are generally considered stronger than a priori arguments. Their reliance on empirical proof is certainly more attractive to the modern rational thinker.
