"Can't be repeated in a lab" and "scientists don't believe in it" are two
different things.

Suppose I told you that, for instance, an object doesn't exist if it has no
physical substance and you said that objects can exist whether I believe in them
or not. That's true, but those objects that exist without my belief still have
physical substance.

A doctor in Oregon recently killed someone I was very close to through
incompetence. I don't consider "doctors in Oregon believe in it" to be a high
reccomendation.
