A lot of highly intelligent people throughout history have been wrong. They have been wrong because they did not have the necessary information or the prevailing beliefs prevented them from seeing what was there.
That’s as much an argument against your position as it is mine.
It was a comment on knowledge being based on verifiable, testable, falsifiable information, not faith. If it can't be tested, how do you know it's true?
What it says in the bible, quran , gita, etc, cannot be tested. It must be taken on faith.
