If a claim conflicts with our experience, then we have good reason to be suspicious of that experience since we can never directly experience the world.

Answer the following statement true (T) or false (F)


False

Experience is an important source of evidence. So if experience contradicts some claim, then we have some reason to doubt that claim. Experience, however, is not infallible. If there is evidence that runs contrary to an experience, then we have reason to doubt the reliability of that experience.
