Both your points are taken. But isn't science, too, an art? The line between mysticism and progress is thin, and what you create is a reflection of what you deem to be of worth.

In any case, here is my point. As a scientist, you know that the best observer when it comes to practical data is one outside of the phenomenon. So it is with artists. We create a replica of what we believe is the human soul. Such a creature thrives in being an outsider, and is often at odds with what human society accepts.
