Subjective feelings are not evidence, and there's a simple way to demonstrate that: you feel that your god exists, and someone of another religion feels that their god is real. This is true of multiple religions, and at least a couple hundred followers. But they're all different gods, mostly mutually exclusive. Someone is wrong there. It's possible everyone is wrong there. But what's truly evident from that example is that "feeling" god inside you is not an accurate depiction of reality necessarily, because at least a few of the people reporting precisely the same effect you are, are by definition entirely wrong. So feelings produce, at best, both correct and incorrect results: how do you tell which is right?

Oh, and by the way: if I feel in my heart, as truly as you believe in your god, that rocks can talk, does that mean that rocks can talk? Or does that mean my feelings are factually wrong?

Hmm, I guess feelings aren't reliable evidence then. Thinking

If you have some false memories, it means memory is never reliable and you can never be certain of a certain memory?

Exactly!!!!! You can't rely on personal memory at all.
