It's funny when it's a religion thing, then it's Scully who isn't skeptical at all. Angels? Oh yeah, absolutely. Gotta be angels. And Mulder is the consummate skeptic if it's ANYTHING spiritual
"Clearly this is a message from God!"
"Scully, it's alien eggs in your ass, God had nothing..."
"I AM CHOSEN!"
I think Scully is a good example for people who are curious about materialism and religion. She believes in God and the bible and miracles and all that, but she also lives in our shared reality on this earth. Her religion guides who she is morally and philosophically, but she’s not praying to god while analyzing DNA structures and or cursing satan during shootouts with deep state agents.
And aliens and monsters and super powers do exist in her reality, but she isn’t quick to just assume it’s real because her current understanding of material reality and religion haven’t caught up with the new reality. She never performs studies, so if we consider the scientific method the golden standard, then she’s simply being a good scientist.
