Personally, I don't see anything wrong with one being skeptic on any subject. That is what makes us ask questions, and without asking questions, how else would we have growth? But as stated, there is a difference between a skeptic with a closed mind and one with an open mind.

There is, and always will be people that need a certain amount of scientific data in order for them to believe anything presented to them, and even when there is scientific data, they will still refute it. Here's a perfect example: Look at the scientific data of "evolution" but yet there are masses of people that still won't believe it, because it goes against their "faith." Conversely, there are also masses of people that do accept the scientific data!

As far as physic and mediumship scientific data and testing, as Amp said, there is much scientific data that backs this up! However, again, there are those that refuse to see that, or even search for it for that matter. Sometimes I think that people just have their mind made up, and that's all there is to it, and if that is right and just for them, then so be it. For us to judge them, or they us (psychics and mediums) is sort of a mute point. I, as a psychic medium, am not looking to convert or prove to anyone as to what I come to know (by taking time to learn) to be true. In my opinion, it is up to the individual to come to that conclusion on their own accord, and I would hope they would do that by studying the subject broadly instead of just taking the word of "one" person. Hopefully, at that point, when they want to oppose the subject, they will do so with appropriate “facts” at hand.

No matter what subject, scientific or not, you will always have those of opposing opinions, (not always based on “fact”) and of course, when the subject is one that does not align with what is considered the "norm", then "proof" seems to be needed for one to believe. With some people, even an abundance amount of proof isn't sufficient.

Either way, believe or not, we shall all receive our individual “proof” upon our earthly death. Until then, I prefer to just try and live in peace and harmony and simply respect the fact that it is quite suitable to agree to disagree without being judgmental of those that oppose our beliefs.
