Some people think that all three situations are friends. According to Aristotle people are friends if: 1. each person has good will toward the other person, 2.each person knows that the other one has good will towards the other. == ==

This seems like a simple question, but if you have ever been confused or mistaken about something, you know that what you //think// is true might be different from what really //is// true.

Aristotle, a greek philosopher spent a lot of time trying to figure out a fool-proof way of knowing what is true. He decided that even if everyone in the world believes something is true it might still be false. For example, if you woke up tomorrow and everyone started saying the sky is green that wouldn't make the sky green for real.
