In a previous post, I had mentioned why I believe that belief is optional. If I believe about X, than I agree that every one need not believe in X and not X has a non-zero probability of being true. If I insist on X being true and expect everyone to affirm X's correctness than I expect X to be a self-evident truth. Insisting that X is necessarily correct will make X a correct statement (for me) and not a belief.
This brings me back to logic. The axioms of logic are self-evident, so they are not beliefs. And either axioms of logic do not constitute knowledge or the definition of knowledge as justified belief is wrong. Axioms of logic are neither justified nor belief.
