At the very best, this person is a part-time scientist and I would  
argue, that as long as the person is "susceptible" to belief, that  
they are susceptible to being non-scientific.

You cannot be a real dyed-in-the-wool scientist and really believe in  
anything of this type.

I can't really "believe", that you really "believe" the contrary.
