justified true belief

A belief is the acceptance of a proposition. A true belief is one that has been examined by the believer and remains a belief. We often accept propositions, only to discover later that we were wrong. Being wrong can be the result of many things: lack of other knowledge that would have caused disbelief; a persuasive argument that you later reject; the proposition was rational-sounding but it was a fallacy.

A rational proposition that is not a fallacy has justification, that is, it is 'justified'. This means the logic is sound and it has a correspondence to facts of reality. (See 'correspondence truth').

Therefore, a 'justified true belief' is one that has been shown to be logically sound, or is accepted as logically sound.

It may or may not be 'defeasible', in other words, defeatable, by a better argument. The Copernican Revolution was the defeat of Catholic justified true belief, by the arguments of Galileo who used the mathematics of Copernicus. (See 'defeator arguments' or 'defeasors')
President Kennedy had a justified true belief that we could get to the moon, because he was shown the proof, without which his belief could not have been justified.

Justified

Justified is when something is normally a crime or illegal but someone does something to start it and force you into it and it couldn’t be help. So it’s justified .
When Michael Stevenson and Josh gray Hugo Rico, and Walt Disney stole every girlfriend I had including Aaron who is with them, even every wives I had and I loved very much and seduce them with temptation and sin , and when they met one they couldn’t take and rape her in our bed, and held a gun to her head and say if you struggle or cry for help we will you … and I caught them and shoot them in the head… it’s justified because they would of killed us all anyway and left no witnesses or survivors as usual and pay off police and judges and prosecutors mental hospital , psych wards all kinds of doctors and jails and prisons and probation and parole offices. The whole nine yards.

Justified

Hym "YOU don't decide whether or not child murder is justified. If YOU DID DECIDE than child murder would not occur. You want you to be The Decider and you are having a hard time reconciling with the fact that you are not. So, I'm telling YOU that what was happening to me at the group home, was happening previously (not the retard sex obviously) and it continued to happen at the place I'm currently working and if it is going to continue to happen at my next job it is going to be a child-murder justifying problem and I'm not paying my fucking taxes until I'm made whole. So fuck you. Fuck your kids. I don't have to agree with you in regarding things justified or not and in the instance I personally am just going to default to child murder. Sooooo.... You're not telling my ahit and you're not doing nothing about the stalking. Stop telling yourself that. Stop telling other people that. That is political gamesmanship. It's a ploy. They say 'He's trying to justify child murder' instead of what is actually happening because it makes people who aren't in the loop more sympathetic WITHOUT HAVING TO EXPLAIN what is actually going on. And 'the Avoidance of explanation' is their goal in saying it. These people CAN'T tell the truth. They are fundamentally incapable of doing it."
