We have a mental model of the world that we call our beliefs. This world does not always reflect reality very well as our perceptions distort the information coming from our senses

I recommend that the second sentence should start with "This model"-- it's much clearer than way rather than using "world" with two different meanings.

I haven't read the whole thing yet, but do you cover limitations of the senses as well as distortions?

Thanks.

I don't really cover limitations of senses. It's an important thing but maybe for another article.
