From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The relationship between belief and knowledge is subtle. Believers in a claim typically say that they know that claim. For instance, those who believe that the Sun is a god will often report that they know that the Sun is a god. However, the terms belief and knowledge are used differently by philosophers. It is a telling point concerning the nature of belief that most people distinguish between what they know and what they believe, even though they consider both kinds of statements to be true. Epistemology is the philosophical study of knowledge and belief. The primary problem in epistemology is to understand exactly what is needed in order for us to have knowledge. In a notion derived from Plato's dialogue Theaetetus, philosophy has traditionally defined knowledge as justified true belief. The relationship between belief and knowledge is that a belief is knowledge if the belief is true, and if the believer has a justification (reasonable and necessarily plausible assertions/evidence/guidance) for believing it is true. A false belief is not considered to be knowledge, even if it is sincere. A sincere believer in the flat earth theory does not know that the Earth is flat. Similarly, a truth that nobody believes is not knowledge, because in order to be knowledge, there must be some person who knows it. Later epistemologists have questioned the "justified true belief" definition, and some philosophers have questioned whether "belief" is a useful notion at all. Beliefs are the assumptions we make about ourselves, about others in the world and about how we expect things to be. Beliefs are also how we think things really are. From Wikipedia under the

Answered by Bonnie C - Sat Mar 1 23:59:03 2008 How exactly does evolution oppose Christian beliefs? Q. Sure, studies have shown that the human race has changed over time.

Draw ugly faces next to them (and put a little effort into this, just not a stick figure; give them a little personality. Give them pitch-forks and stinky feet, etc.) Take account also of how you treat other people. Do you treat them directly and fairly? (It is how you will treat yourself inwardly.) So be honest with them. Make a list of how you want these things to change into good things, and try to think up real occurrances that these steps might take place. Make each transformation take several small, discrete steps. And don't think that these bad times have nothing good for you to learn from. Cherish the bad times and bad parts of your life.
