Truth, Belief, and Knowledge((3))


What can you gain from belief, truth, and knowledge? What do all of these have in common? How are all of these different? Well, due to some knowledge in class, i believe many things from this theory. But if you look at it, everything can be true.Due to some callous, complex thinking really cleared a few things up to me. I hope you can understand my thoughts.

Truth, Belief, and Knowledge are all the same in one way but different in another. They both go hand in hand with the other, if you look at it at a certain perspective. Looking at knowledge..knowledge is something you know, something you acquire from the things around you. Truth... is something that is true..actuality..not like a lie..basically the opposite of a lie. You gain the truth from the knowledge you build. Belief.. (like God)..is something you think of in your own way, it does not need to explained, nor do you need to argue your beliefs. given that we are handed a bible that seems to be true, knowledge comes from it with beliefs. Your knowledge can be true if you believe, but if everyones beliefs are different, how do we know the knowledge that everyone has is true? it could just be what they believe is the truth. But looking at Plato's venn diagram makes me question everything i know about knowledge, truth and belief. Your knowledge relates to what you believe to be true. And truth comes from what you believe from your knowledge. And belief comes from everything that is true and your knowledge to what you think is true. Not only that, knowledge can stand out on its own. Everything is twisted together and really gets you to start thinking.

so how exactly can we differ these things from each other???
