The Antisocial Socialist

Scully being a skeptic never seemed as strange to me as it did to everyone else. Maybe it was a bit of a stretch when she was so close-minded at the beginning of cases, but I always liked that she insisted on bringing science into Mulder's hunches, and having evidence before she would believe.

Just because she had some first-hand-experience and proof with certain supernatiral things, didn't mean that she need to believe everything that Mulder threw at her, and change her entire worldview around. She could be a little rigid, but I just saw it as Scully needing the cold hard facts before accepting something as valid. Although perhaps for realism they should have pushed the angle more that Scully was at least somewhat open to Mulder's theories, instead of laughing and rolling her eyes everytime heh.
