Being 'open minded', when this means accepting everything as a possibility, is not a good thing.
Science has not changed over 1000 years. Our understanding of it has. This understanding allows us (if we are able) to discard such absurdities as souls. And leprechauns, Allah and pixies.
The fact that we do not understand everything does not make it any more likely that souls exist. They either do or they don't. Our understanding of science would indicate that they don't.
