Being open minded about possibilities is fine, that's how new things get discovered all the time.

But to believe something without first establishing its existence is foolish.

And this example shows that people very easily believe things for no good reason; we're all susceptible to it, our brains are perfectly developed for it.

And logic doesn't come from knowledge, logic can be used with knowledge to make deductions and inferences and predictions, but logic only depends on a few basic assumptions such as cause and effect.
