-You don;t know that, or do you?  Do you know it and believe it?  Do you believe it but not know it? Wink

What are you trying to say there?

Every proposition is either believed or disbelieved.

And yes you can believe something but not know it.

But you can't know something but not believe it.

Just commenting of the limitations of the semantics of belief.  I;m sure you know that 2+2=4...you don;t believe it.  We can separate the two.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
