"I just want people to be more rational"

"I reserve the right to think something isn't real until it's proven to scientific and legal standards."

How can you promote the latter and claim the former? Do you think something cannot be real unless is has empirical facts attesting to it? Do you reject logical facts? Like mathematics?

Do you think that legal standards have an inherently rigorous basis?

It's really embarrassing to claim that you promote rationality when you almost certainly can't provide a general description of philosophy of science.
