I had started to lose my faith in science's rational skepticism (hmm... ironic word choice there LOL)


I've never viewed 'rational skepticism' as appropriate to science anyway, boundless curiosity tempered by wary optimism is the name of the game.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
