I was born and raised into the Roman Catholic religion. There is no other religion for me. Knowledge would be difficult to define as something that I have in completeness to my religion. I did not study theology so I am not considered perfect in that regard. But I do have my faith and yes, I am absolutely certain that my faith is truth, in my opinion, if I didn't I wouldn't believe in God or the Trinity. And I do........peace and love........

Knowledge, no, faith I think so, I hope so. Absolute truth, this is what I believe, is known only to God. My faith is important to me, I know I believe what I believe...but as a human being, honestly, I think I'll always seek more knowledge and greater strength of faith. Peace and Love back at 'ya, and God bless.

You have to have a working knowledge of your faith/belief to be able to take it out into the world and test it to see if it passes or fails "in the field" so to speak.
God sets forth precepts to man. Man must take them and PROVE them out. If the precepts are true, then you know you are dealing with an absolute.
Love your enemies and do good to them who abuse you. This is a precept. It is set down and then you are told you will make "gains" of some kind. Ye shall know the truth and the truth will set you free, is another precept.
So, how does truth free you? Good question. Sometimes I do not want to know something and knowing it enslaves me. NO, knowing it gives you a bigger field of vision. NOT knowing something enslaves you. You may not LIKE the truth of a situation, but in knowing a truth, you are freed to make another decision, different from the one you might make in darkness.
All things which come from God are ABSOLUTES, because His Spirit is PURE truth.

Since my holy books are mostly non-fiction, I can say yes.
Alot of my holy books are fiction and fantasy but I can still say yes, I was aware of that environment when I read the story.
Anyways, my metaphysical books, maybe.....I have experienced some and understand some, but they are still planting seed for future experiences. So yes I suppose 4th dimensionally
My mythological books, still yes, because I understand the concepts behing the myth and can use the knowledge(some) in practical applications, therefore truth is all around me.
How do I "know" it is truth. Because my personal knowledge created a biased perception that I use to view life and my perception is my limit to my environment and my limits to how far that environment can grow and get bigger and smarter. Maybe even connect to your perception. This is what it's like when worlds collide. ;)

I don't think knowledge is required for faith in ones beliefs. Also, according to my beliefs, there are no absolutes. This makes your question difficult to answer, but I would say that I do have the knowledge I need to accept my beliefs as true enough.

Beleiveing that faith is an absolute truth is the ABSENCE of KNOWLEDGE.
So, no, NONE OF THEM have knowledge - only their beliefs, which they BELIEVE to be based upon knowledge. However, faith also requires "trampling logic underfoot" as Martin Luther is quoted....

I think a better question is
Do you have the faith to accept that your knowledge is not absolute Truth?

Well, by definition faith is an act of will and it becomes more valious if you belive without having all the knowledge.

for me personally yes i have faith in my own truth
but what is true to me , may not be for others .. as it is all relative
i am of the opinion though that it doesnt make a difference if one is true and the other is not .. as long as people live their life in the best way possible in accordance to their beliefs
