Does it seem that some people simply refuse to believe any conspiracy or paranormal phenomenon might be true?

Yes. There are a few on YA that will be MORE than helpful on this. They are not your average everyday skeptics, but you will see. One answered above with the initials NSBD. Recently, PP has seen an influx of 'close minded skeptics'. Now they are coming from dating, politics, and pets! Their comments are not meant to disprove anything, just gain points. We take skeptics with us on hunts all the time - when we can get them. It keeps our minds in check and offers reasonable explanations. They usually don't stay for more than two investigations, though. My offer still stands...no takers as of this answer.
