it doesn't confirm solipsism. it makes all our beliefs in question, not all our observations. all our observations may very well be accepted as true, but conclusions drawn from them are no more true than false. it makes us question our cognitive faculties, not our senses.
I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with senses, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use and by some other means to give us knowledge which we can attain by them.
