Surely declaring "x is impossible", before witnessing x, would be the most wrong you could be?
I take more issue with the people who incredulously shout "That's impossible!" after witnessing x.
I don't. You can witness a magician, e.g., violating conservation of matter, and still declare "that's impossible!"
Basically, you're stating that you don't believe that the signals your senses reported to you are accurate.
