Is knowledge always true?

If the individual considers it to be knowledge, then that individual considers it to be true.





Subjectively, yes, Knowledge is always true.Is knowledge always true?
';Knowing'; may not be true but the word ';knowledge'; is used for the true things. Sometimes I become puzzled though! I know two guys: one is a young engineer who had all the academic courses on car-engine %26amp; opened a motor workshop. The other one is an old guy who had his workshop from his early-hood. Both of them had 'knowledge' on cars! Unfortunately, people relied on the old one who never appeared in any academic courses on car-technology! I can't understand the reason behind! (Please, do not mention the question of experiences; since we are talking on knowledge.)Is knowledge always true?
Yes. If it isn't true, then it's an assumption or belief, not knowledge. Though people can assume or believe that they know something when really they don't, of course.
By definition, knowledge is a true, warranted belief. So yes.
How can you know anything?





Is not knowledge not just inference?
';There's nothing you can know that can't be known';.


-The Beatles, ';All You Need Is Love';
It could be... You'll never know until you die..
It is...Until is is not.
Nope. It simply isn't.
No, it is not.

    1. Knowledge is defined by the person’s understanding and interpretation of information relative to the individuals intelligence. Therefore knowledge is a form of self expression until it is a universally a verifiable truth. Consequently, knowledge is not inevitably always true.
