Abstract
Certainty is generally agreed to come in degrees. I argue that it also comes in different types. Just as one can be fairly certain, highly certain, or absolutely certain, so one can be practically certain, empirically certain, mathematically certain, and so on. If being certain of P is having no reasons for doubting, then being empirically certain of P is having no empirical reasons to doubt P, and similarly for other types of certainty.
