And your fixation on this term is not doing a whit to advance the discussion. We're not using philosophical jargon here, we're speaking English, and the ususal definition suffices for what we're trying to communicate.
We are in the philosophy section.....and I have been giving a lot of thought about starting a separate thread here about the differences between knowledge, belief, and certitude. You might see such a thread in the near future.
