Give the software a rest and read with your soul. Where's the fun if
Lojban is nothing but a glorified ROT13? Think of "zo'u" as "such that".
However, I read it as a nonsequitur.

{zo'u} is more like a ":"

He meant (I presume):

Assuming that every false belief is not knowledge:
no knowledge exists.

> > .i ro selkrici cu jitfa no da

da means "There exists a...". Thus, the sentence means "There exists no
standard/epistemology/metaphysics such that every belief is false."

Actually, as written it says: For every belief x, there is no standard
by which x is false.

What you  meant (I presume) is:

     i no da cu se jitfa ro selkrici

There is no standard such that every belief is false by it.
