The simplest formula is:
some knowledge is derived from belief , example>hypotheticals- as in 'what if, such & such
Most belief is derived from some knowledge of hypotheticals,
But not all belief is derived from knowledge- based on 'some knowledge is not hypothetical, because that kind of ‘knowledge’ is merely a pre-intuitive
automatic function of the sympathetic nervous
system.
The point being, is, that knowledge and belief are
vast umbrellas , covering their relative descriptions,
for one, and their post-criptions on the other.
Knowledge is described as = to belief at a time, when
description and inscription were undifferentiated,
they were tied to very basic functions of survival.
The critical doubt arose, at a time, when these definitions became more broad spectrum, and began
to be different.
Now, in common language, doubt is forced upon , with such expressions as ’ I don’t believe what you
say’- ; with belief differentiated from saying-
meaning.
Way before, common understanding was based on
purely literal and objective belief, forced on the fact
that few people wrote, and the spoken language had to be by various reasons taken at face value.
Some of these reasons were attributable to minimize variance , to minimize the effects of primal force which threatened to disorganize life. Adherence, reification,and social welfare were dependent on
maximum cogency of a unitary public narrative.
Variant private belief, developed from more control over the environment, especially after writing became more of a vehicle of evolving symbolic re-presentation, generally.
