This information convert into idea, Which become a part of knowledge that a person can receive. Philosophy is similar to this source of knowledge.

Through thoughts, we can get reality, Like dreams, feelings after taking drug, false ideas, taste, color, sound that a person has are all part of subjectivism because these things not belongs with an object. Objectivism is based on facts rather than personal feelings. According this nature to knowing anything. Its experience is important. In objectivism presence of an outside world describes the experience that we have to contribute to daily life.

Theories to test the knowledge:

To test the knowledge four theories are explained, the skepticism theory, the correspondence theory, the coherence theory & the pragmatic theory. Skepticism shows that, there is great doubt about knowledge is true or useful.

The correspondence theory shows that, The close similarities or connection between facts & realities . This theories also shows that, beliefs can’t effect the existence of reality. The coherence theory explain that, all ideas or judgment fit together that they from a valid knowledge.

The pragmatic theory deals with that knowledge is based on practical consideration. Knowledge is most important tool for a man to understand the world or all aspect of life.
