I don’t think people are able to separate the two. Every knowledge is a believe until it’s disproved . Then you will see a separation in people who hold on the their “old” knowledge or beliefs and the people who have space left for new knowledge and with that comes new beliefs.

Is there really that much difference between knowledge and beliefs? I observed it especially in different generations. Plus you have cultural differences on top of that. I think education forms new tribes where it was only religion before. Especially in generational truths.

I noticed a weird thing: When I wrote a long post on nextdoor to inform my neighbors about what's currently going down (using only stuff that is easy to google in reputable sources), several people aggressively inquired about credentials. Once PhD+MIT was established, it was ok.

There are several strategies to police the integrity of one's belief system: - Be promiscuous (woo woo!) - Ask high status peers - Certified authority ('expert', priest, media or government) - External sources based on their rational epistemology - Individual rationality

I’ll take individual rationality especially when it comes to survival.
