Knowledge, Beliefs, and Religion. [May contrain smart observations]

Hey all. XD Philosophy class was stunning, though caused a feeling of apathy. And if your dark, I'll only allow you to read if you know this applies to a BROAD topic, not any type of exact thing. If you get any ideas it does apply to a strict concept, then start doubting that. Reason for posting is only for wisdom and knowledge of many things, or all things without one being the proof of anything but itself if on a non serious topic.

Philosophy: Knowledge=...Knowledge is... What is knowledge?
Person (P) knows statement (S) if and only if __

Requirements: List of actions taken in by sociology and evolved personal levels... Step (1 - 4).
Evidence of S (people saying they believe in god, evidence in the existance of god)
P experiences that S (people experience god. Talking? Visual? Experience through the belief of a soul in some way)
P accepts S (accepting of god/ accepting of knowledge of _ ). If someone does NOT accept knowledge of god, they're normally an atheist.
P believes in S. (belief in existance or knowledge of god)

Knowing=thinking we know based on above to be true. Which may not be true. Life could be just a dream with fake everything. We think a dream is real, by false evidence, experience, maybe accepting of something?

Reason why EVERYONE knows a religion, or god without acceptance/belief...: evidence of miracles from others or self, experience (sometimes), unacceptance of it = contradicting self of trying to say they do not KNOW of god. To believe is to know. To say they don't believe is to NOT know of evidence, experience, generally means they're potentionally saying all that they've experienced, evidence, etc, and that it does not exist. It's only a mere contradiction of knowledge of God, but belief or knowledge in itself may not be true in the dream case.

Therefore, the reason why some are religious, and the reason why some aren't depends on the acceptance of knowledge whether it be false or true. Everything could be true, or everything could be false. Perhaps truth and falseness do not exist. To say you don't believe in something, then its telling yourself you do not know of that something or have no knowledge (of that something), absolutely.
