^{page 292 note 1} Note that this is an argument against construing any knowledge, not just God's knowledge as true belief+ …However, though it is an argument against that construal of human knowledge, it is not an argument against the existence of human beliefs; for we, unlike God, can and do believe something without knowing it.

^{page 294 note 1} See my “Concepts of Epistemic Justification” (The Monist, LXVII, 1 01 1985, 577–89)Google Scholar and various references given there for an account of this and other concepts of justification.

^{page 295 note 1} For the latter, see Essay Concerning Human Understanding, bk. IV, ch. 1, section 2.

^{page 295 note 2} We have to make an exception to this generalization for beliefs with certain special contents. For example, my belief that I believe something could not be the state it is (a belief of mine) unless its propositional object were true. (I owe this point to Robert Audi.) But this is because of the special character of that propositional object. It is still the case that, unlike knowledge on the intuitive conception, there is nothing about belief as such that prevents a belief from being the psychological state it is even if its propositional object is false.

^{page 295 note 3} a See Price, , loc. cit.Google Scholar In Descartes' Méditation IV it is the faculty of the understanding that achieves knowledge; the will is then faced with the task of forming judgements or beliefs in accordance with that. See also Locke, op. cit. bk. IV, chs. 5 and 14. In chapter 14 Locke clearly affirms that one judges that p only where one does not know that p; but in chapter 5 he seems to hold that one may also judge that p where one does know that p, though the knowledge is still distinct from the judgement.

^{page 302 note 1} This point has been exploited by many thinkers to defuse the problem. If God does not exist in time, but rather in an “eternal now”, then God never knows “in advance” what happens. All of His knowledge is strictly contemporary with what is known, since God is all at once contemporary with all of time. Hence His perfect knowledge of all our actions is not more incompatible with our freedom to do otherwise than is the contemporary knowledge of another human being as to what I am doing at a given moment. See, e.g. St Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, 1a, Q. 14, art. 13. In order to generate a problem of divine omniscience and human freedom we need to think of God as temporal, as living through a succession of moments, so that He will know in advance what I do at a given moment.

^{page 302 note 2} This diagnosis of the situation may, of course, be contested, but for the purposes of this discussion I only need to display its plausibility.
