I think the heart of it is to test the evidence behind any claim being made, and never accept authority as a substitute for supporting evidence.

God give me unclouded eyes and freedom from haste. God give me quiet and relentless anger against all pretense and all pretentious work and all work left slack and unfinished. God give me a restlessness whereby I may neither sleep nor accept praise until my observed results equal my calculated results, or, in pious glee, I discover and assault my error. God give me strength not to trust God.
-- Sinclair Lewis, Arrowsmith (scientist's creed)
This I believe and totally subscribe to.

Logic is everything so if you can't prove it than it must not exist.
