The only problem arises in accepting something based on zero skepticism. Skeptics are correct in doubting, for acceptance of any concept is mere escapism from reality.
The goal is to be a real skeptic and not a pseudo skeptic. Paranormal researchers claim that skeptics who dismiss the paranormal research as being woo are just pseudo skeptics (close minded skeptics). Whether that is true or not I do not know.
