Whether there is falsity in the senses?

❌ Objection 1 : It seems that falsity is not in the senses. For Augustine says (De Vera Relig. 33): "If all the bodily senses report as they are affected, I do not know what more we can require from them." Thus it seems that we are not deceived by the senses; and therefore that falsity is not in them.

❌ Objection 2 : Further, the Philosopher says (Metaph. iv, 24) that falsity is not proper to the senses, but to the imagination.

❌ Objection 3 : Further, in non-complex things there is neither true nor false, but in complex things only. But affirmation and negation do not belong to the senses. Therefore in the senses there is no falsity.
