I agree that "know" may be too strong of a word to use, but I disagree with your choice of words. "To believe," connotes trust without reason, and I would certainly hope that ideas we endorse are ones that we have spent ample time thinking about. In that sense, perhaps "to think" is a better replacement to use than "to believe." I think "to think" would better account for our changing conceptions across diverse disciplines--from variations in literary criticism, to the ever-present possibily of fallacy in scientific theory.
Enough thinking about this: I should so be writing my paper...
