I do not know what I may appear to the world, but to myself I seem to have been only like a boy playing on the sea-shore, and diverting myself in now and then finding a smoother pebble or a prettier shell than ordinary, whilst the great ocean of truth lay all undiscovered before me.

That reduces the likelyhood of it being a sensory "burp", but it's still not ruled out. Just as when many people see one of those internally-illuminated blimps and assume it's an alien spacecraft - they're still wrong, no matter how many people swear to God that it was a alien spacecraft. Believing it was an alien spacecraft is irrational.
That tribe person might have been seeing things. That's what I'm saying. Rule that out and you have a point

So Dave, by your logic, a photo of pluto isn't proof that it is real. Show me proof Pluto is real. Photos and the accounts of people who have seen it aren't enough. They are irrational.
We don't know what emotions are. Give me proof that emotions exist. Your own accounts aren't enough, they are irrational.

You seem to not understand what I'm saying. Seeing something does not equate to that which has been allegedly seen actually existing. Ask someone who's suffering from a fever, or who's been to Burning Man. They'll clue you right in.

May I suggest reading about the human sensory system and how it can be easily fooled? Read above for an experiment you can perform yourself that demonstrates just how easy it is.
