As long as you draw your conclusion based upon a biased mindset, then you would be likely to draw the wrong conclusion. I could either be having an open, rational mind and just can't decide one way or the other. Or, I could be having an open, irrational mind. I don't know which one I have, personally, since I am undecided on that one, too. But I have tried my best to keep an open, rational mind though.
You seem to not be properly grasping the difference between an open mind and rationality. Rationally, a mind open to anything is unreasonable, for it prescribes the allowance of clearly irrational thought the notion of realistic validity.
My mind is open to believing in the existence of something supernatural when the proper evidence is provided. Until that time, someone's claim of evidence remains just that, a claim with no evidence to rationally support it.
