23. Well keep it in perspective
Carl Sagan didn't believe in ghosts. There is no scientific evidence, ever, anywhere, that establishes their existance as fact, and don't think people haven't been trying to get some. Science isn't trying to limit discovery and the expansion of knowledge, far from it. It's doing just that.

The view isn't that of the be all end of all the human experience, but one of rationally observing the world around us and reacting to it, instead of believing in things to which there is no proof or evidence.
