Through observation I have found that most scientific skeptics are male. Not just masculine but male. I’m a female and a genuine skeptic.
The following are Ryan thoughts in my words…
Scientific skeptics are afraid of the unknown so they focus on what is known to comfort their infantile emotions.
[Irony: Scientific skeptics believe we are mindless and insult our intelligence while Believers believe Diskeptics are heartless and lack emotional maturity. Believers rarely if ever call Diskeptics derogatory names nor do we point out their emotional immaturity so me using the word “infantile” is a bit of irony.

Then we have the faith-based skeptics who believe in the unknown / unseeable because it’s been approved by a governing body such as the Church but do not believe in ancient wisdom or the spirit world as connected to humans. This is unfortunate because they ultimately do not believe in themselves and therefore to our minds their belief in the religious X,Y,Z is not genuine.
