For memories we are not sure of… we are not sure.
For memories we are sure of… we have a good reason for being sure.
The wealth of scientific evidence supports my claim. Memory is not reliable, and there's nothing special about your memory.
And how sure we are about a memory has no connection to how accurate it is.
If you want to find memory unreliable, you can find this out.

Both are true, neither is true.
Mere skepticism.
So you just pick and choose what you want to believe? That's not how reality works.

And believing in something isn't enough to make it true, is it?
Yes or no, please.
