[[Epistemology]], a branch of [[philosophy]], is concerned with the question of what, if anything, humans can know. The answer to the issue of whether or not a human can be infallible depends on the philosophical school.

*Advocates of [[philosophical skepticism]] claim that one cannot know anything with certainty, much less be infallible. 
*[[Infallibilism|Infallibilists]] hold that knowledge requires absolute certainty, in the sense that if one knows that something is true, it is impossible that it could have turned out to be false.
*Advocates of [[subjectivism]] claim that there is no objective reality or truth, and therefore anyone can be considered infallible, since whatever is within a person's consciousness ''is'' considered the real and the true.
*Advocates of [[reason]] and [[rationality]] claim that one ''can'' gain certainty of knowledge, through a process of extreme refinement measures unlikely to be perfected enough for someone to assurably say "certainty of this knowledge is absolute", yet also assume by chance that one could land on the objective without the knowledge being confidently described as "universally certain", thus as a result, advocates tend to avoid this altogether and instead rely upon [[Occam's Razor]] as a suitable means for obtaining knowledge.
