> Since there are infinite things about which we are wrong

That's... ahem... wrong.

How could there possibly be an infinite number of things "we" (humanity, I presume?) are wrong about, given that there have only been a finite number of human beings with (as far as I know) finite life spans?

It's quite simple. I am assuming there are an infinite number of things to know. That which we do not know we are wrong about.

That's not a very good assumption; the universe has a finite size and therefore cannot contain an infinite amount of information.
