Evidence can always change by gut stays with you, so you have to trust it and it will develop such a big bull sh.t detector that will amaze you :-)

Maybe I would go so far as to put them on equal footing, but reservations based on gut reactions , in my view, can be an indication that more needs to be learned. Also, because of baggage from earlier experience, my initial reaction can often be what I know is not best for me or represents something that I need to move beyond. You're right though in that one isn't really much good without the other. My detector has gotten more accurate over time.
