To what extent is the sense perception reliable?
First of all sense perception is selective. As a human being we choose what we want to explore and then our senses do all the work. For example in the class, our teacher made us look around the room and find all red coloured objects. Then he made us close our eyes and tell him what blue objects does he have in his classroom. By this exercise he explained how sense perception is selective.
Sense perception is selective, biological, limited and is important because without sense perception a human being couldn't move around the world or even live because he wouldn't know what's happening around him and what is dangerous and can affect his health.
Thus sense perception alone is not trustworthy, however in combination with other parts of knowing can be useful.
