Sure. X is a brother, so X is a male. But X is a brother is not justified (although it may be true, of course).


Do you have in mind the distinction between not being justified, and being unjustified? If a claim is unjustified, then it doesn't seem it can justify anything. But 'not justified' seems to be, on your usage, an epistemic notion, and doesn't imply being unjustified. Thus, perhaps such a claim can confer justification because it is "basic". Is this how you are thinking about this?

Does it happen ? or not ?


Does what happen?

Are their beliefs? Yes.
Do beliefs occur? Yes.
Are beliefs true (or false)? Yes. If you mean the propositions that are believed. No, if you mean the occurrences that are inside the head.

@kennethamy,
Straight sense, beliefs are true. Their conclusion might not be...
An Inductive thought, is itself a fact, that relates to another fact, witch may or may not be true...yet, it operates inside is gravitational mind campus...so In its internal cosmogony, in its mind field, as to be true to be a belief, at least, at a conscientious level...

(I speak of the specific thought and not the act of believing.)

The thought if conclusive, as to be believed, and even if not, probably works the same way...

When it comes to mind work, between being and not being, even in doubt, things are till disproved...

...in mind, information as to be settled, rather then inconclusive...specially beliefs.

for instance :

...hallucinations occur precisely because of that...

(in my opinion this fact must be related with Evolution process, in witch survival of the individual would depend on it...)

More:

True or false are expressions that should relate to things ? priori, so I personally would prefer a term that naturally would point toward action ? posteriori, like Verified, Unverified, once, the final objective of the induction itself is not yet concluded...

In a proposition, to be verified or unverified...in other things, it depends of the goal, in itself, to be believed...
