According to the Epistemologist’s consensus, truth of the case and the case’s owner’s belief are necessary conditions for something to being as a instance of knowledge. Truth of the case comes form the case’s reality and it exist independently from anything else such as the owner’s mind’s state. In the other hand when the owner of the case believes in its truth she gets the needed information from the external world and after that she processes the information and as a result of the process, her mind’s state gets changed in order to accept its truth so the belief is completely internal thing and it should be achieved by rational analysis of the human.
we have lots of true beliefs that all of them can not be counted as instance of knowledge because we gain them in a way which is not epistemicly rational and we luckily obtained them. I got the meaning of epistemicly rational as a process of gaining knowledge with the correct and relevant input information which is taking place by cognitive power of a normal and mentally healthy human.
thanks!
