Assume that your opinion is wrong, but as wrong as it can possibly be under realistic circumstances. For example, if you are a socialist you find out that socialism never works and is always just an excuse to institute authoritarian dictatorships. Likewise, if you are a capitalist you learn that real socialism absolutely works and only fails due to military or espionage intervention from capitalists.
What is a belief you would be the most okay with being wrong on, and which one would devastate you the most if you were wrong?
I don't know that any would hurt me to be wrong about.
I don't have the beliefs I have because I want to believe them, I have them because I've done as comprehensive a look at the world as I can and come to certain conclusions based on the understanding that I have.
If that understanding changes, my beliefs will change.
A lot of people's beliefs are based on personal values so there's not really a way to prove them "wrong" per say.
