Maybe you should ask people of faith are they open to the possibility that they could be wrong.

No, no, no. I never said everyone needs to believe in something.
I said people shouldn't be so closed minded as to call someone who believes in something beyond human comprehension mentally ill or whatever (not you personally but you get my point). There was a time computers and mobile phones would've been thought of as magic after all.
Being open minded doesn't mean find something to believe in or believe in everything, it means don't dismiss something because it's beyond human comprehension as many things have been in the past.
I don't need to ask people of faith anything, my point was directed at your point is all. I would say someone of faith has already taken into account the possibility of them being wrong but has "faith" hence the word. The very fact what they believe in may not be able to be proven is proof enough it's been taken into consideration but they still have faith in it.
Science isn't the be all and end all of life.
