You aren't getting any gaurantees from theism in that regard either. You've invoked a veiled form of solipsism. That isn't troubling for everything but god, it's troubling for everything including god.
We do have plenty of examples where our faculties are defective btw, many times due to the evolutionary pathway taken to develop them. Our minds aren't exactly immune to this. Thats why we've developed some interesting systems for sorting the signal from the noise. Course, we could be wrong about those as well.........

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
