It's not just skepticism though, she strongly staked out the opposing position. I would say it is irrational to have such a strong opinion on such little evidence.
Also, -phobia doesn't only mean fear. It can also mean dislike or hatred.
- alphachloride 6y agoA strong opinion and skepticism are not exclusive. Now we come to the core of the issue: what constitutes an acceptable balance between strength of opinion and evidence? Who arbitrates that? I say it is quite subjective. You say her opinions are irrational and exhibit phobia. I disagree: I'd say putting such a definitive label on her position is irrational.
