knowledge

In reponse to our class discussion i would like to try and define what knowledge to a single person is. KNowledge is something someone believes full heartedly and/or can be proven. ALthough its not just math or science, it is also learning about a subject like what people others believe or knowledge of fiction stories that obviously arent true. KNowledge can be broken into subjects and can be accumulated, but knowledge of the world can never be attained. KNowledge is comprehending something and retaining this fact based on intellectual reasons and not out of being forced into it. Therefore in order to be knowledgable one must have a memory and the knowledge must be usable in a conversation. For example HP can stand for Harry Potter or the company, is not knowledge because this is just a repeated fact and isnt streching any length of the brain. Although it may seem like i am contradicting myself by having knowledge be both memorization but not simple undisputed facts, knowledge lies on the fringe and is therefore hard to define. I would even go as far as to say knowledge is wisdom, the brain not only remembering but comprehending and appreciating a piece of trivia. This piece of trivia is something that may not be fully understood when first thought of or told to, but in context and over time appreciation grows.
