Muses Of A Different Sort:
Knowledge, Belief, And Truth

Agnosticism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnosticism

Agnosticism : from the Greek "a," meaning "without," and Gnosticism or "gnosis," meaning knowledge) is the philosophical view that the truth value of certain claims--particularly metaphysical claims regarding theology, afterlife or the existence of God, gods, deities, or even ultimate reality--is unknown or, depending on the form of agnosticism, inherently unknowable due to the nature of subjective experience.

Agnostics claim either that it is not possible to have absolute or certain knowledge of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods; or, alternatively, that while individual certainty may be possible, they personally have no knowledge. Agnosticism in both cases involves some form of skepticism.

Demographic research services normally list agnostics in the same category as atheists and non-religious people, although this can be misleading depending on the number of agnostic theists who identify themselves first as agnostics and second as followers of a particular religion.



According to Plato knowledge is a subset of that which is both true and believed.

the nature of knowledge
"...epistemology primarily addresses the following questions: "What is knowledge?", "How is knowledge acquired?", and "What do people know?"

Empiricism-- empiricism is a theory of knowledge emphasizing the role of experience, especially experience based on perceptual observations by the five senses. Certain forms treat all knowledge as empirical, mathematics and logic as exceptions.
Rationalism-- acquired by a priori processes or is innate; not derived from experience; intuition;
Constructivism-- view in philosophy according to which all knowledge is "constructed" in as much as it is contingent on convention, human perception, and social experience.
