How is knowledge just one extreme of degree of belief? I can have the strongest degree of belief in p without p being true. But then knowledge, by this definition is not factive (veridical). Rubbish!

[Guaguanco11]

Perhaps the claim was not that knowledge is just one extreme of degree of belief but rather that knowledge can only occur at one extreme of degree of belief. Hence, I can only know that p if I give p a high credence.

i really dont think he was stating that "knowledge is one extreme degree of belief". but rather, it is only on one end of the belief continuum are the necessary conditions met for knowledge to be obtained...
