This is just the brain in a vat thing. There is no way to know that we're not that but it is of no practical consideration. The only logical way to live your life is to assume that the reality you perceive is indeed real. Any other way is madness.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
