 This view of how we get from acquaintance to noninferential knowledge or justified belief is problematic, however. First, the account seems too weak, for acquaintance with a fact that corresponds to a thought is not sufficient for justification, let alone knowledge. Suppose that I am aware of the fact of there being a decagon in my visual field. Suppose that I also believe that there is a decagon in my visual field, but my belief is little more than a lucky guess, or that I only believe this because I think there always is a decagon in my visual field. Intuitively, the belief is not justified. Second, the account seems too strong, for the requirement that one’s thought correspond to reality rules out the possibility of false noninferentially justified belief. The resulting infallibilism regarding foundational belief is a prima facie implausible requirement, and arguably has radically skeptical consequences. This second problem will be taken up later, in  section 6.
