Justification Theory

Justification Theory in Epistemology discusses how we validate our beliefs and knowledge. It emphasizes the necessity of supportive evidence or logical argument for our beliefs. So, rather than blindly accepting something, we should have credible reasons, like personal experience, expert testimony or scientific data. It's like a detective's case: the detective needs solid evidence to prove someone's guilt, not just a hunch. This way, we can better distinguish between true knowledge and mere belief.
