Epistemic Closure Principle
The epistemic closure principle suggests that if you know something to be true, and you also know that this truth leads to another statement being true, then you can also be justified in believing that second statement is true. In simpler terms, if you have reliable knowledge about one fact, and you understand how it connects to another fact, you can confidently accept that second fact as true. This principle highlights the interconnectedness of knowledge and implies that our understanding expands as we learn how different pieces of information relate to each other.
