You're trying to smuggle the "truth" criterion back into the "justification". Any standard of justification that depends on truth is impractical (to say the least) to meet, creates conceptual confusion, and, if applied to the definition of knowledge in this case, makes the "truth" criterion redundant.
- allturtles 5y agoNot so. I was applying a strict definition of justified, where justified means "logically necessary." Others have clarified elsewhere in this conversation that this in't the intent. As I've said elsewhere in this thread, I already think the truth criterion is redundant, since if you can determine whether your knowledge is true, you don't need to worry about justifying it or believing it.
