But what about beliefs that aren't demonstrably false?
Well, I think something should only be accepted as true or likely true once they can be demonstrated, or at least some way to address or measure or interact with a belief can be demonstrated. If something isn't demonstrably false, sure, great... but that's not good enough grounds on which to just believe it - it should be at least somewhat demonstrably true or likely true.
