Abstract

The discussion of belief formation and of the relation between action and belief is amply considered in the literature on skepticism. Situations in which we change our beliefs, or simply adopt a posture of disbelief have not been adequately considered, although relevant for the analysis of belief.
In what circumstances do we change our beliefs or adopt a posture of disbelief? I propose to discuss two cases which might clarify us regarding these questions: Saint Augustine and Martin Luther.
