What exactly knowledge is? I have been thinking a while ago. So what best fit the definition of the word knowledge?
As Albert Einstein said: 'Information is not knowledge'.
But the knowledge of definition goes like this:
facts, information, and skills acquired by a person through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject.

I wish to hear something thoughts from you all.
In reality knowledge is just a word to give meaning to a concept. Albert Einsteins interpretation doesn't make him more right than anyone else. Although I never really considered Albert Einstein to be that good of a philosopher, and he certainly tried.
For philosophical discourse I would always use the following definition, "A justified true belief"

Can I just agree with this part here: why do people talk about Einstein as if the guy knew everything? Just because he thought something doesn't make him right.

Absolutely agreed. He had some good scientific concepts, but I'm not even sure I agree with all of them. Beyond that, using Einstein to sound smart in philosophy and social science wont earn you any brownie points.
