This is not to say that some world views are not better than others (in terms of both completeness and correctness).

Probably, especially if you consider being incomplete "something wrong". I don't think I do. So, I'm not sure whether this is true.
Actually, some people believe that human consciousness is immortal, thus, you really don't need the word, "mortal."
Nevertheless, I'm disagreeing because I'm not convinced a worldview is satisfactory iff it explains everything.
