Fallibilism
Even justified beliefs can be wrong, and knowledge is possible without certainty.
What it claims
Fallibilism holds that no belief can rule out the possibility of error in principle. It nonetheless maintains that knowledge is possible. What this position denies is not knowledge itself but the premise that knowledge requires infallible justification.
