Answer #1

According to Kant theory or perception, we become aware of something through the senses and then form a concept or idea, However, this is can have a consequence, for example, if you see something and you tend to believe in it. However, in reality, what you saw was not real and you have been deceived.

Your senses some times give you the wrong information and however, you tend to believe them and falls to it.

You have just come out of office and you start driving towards home, in between you see your wife with someone who is stranger and she is laughing and touching the man. As you see all this from the car you sense that something is wrong and you doubt your wife.

You reach home and after 5 minutes even your wife reach and you ask her who was that guy because your senses told you that something is wrong. However, your wife replies he was my old college friend and he is like my brother. Then you feel relax and if you have taken this further this could have been turned into a very serious issue. Your wife just answered your simple in a polite way and cleared all your doubts.

This shows that when you see things this does not mean that you are right always.
