slight spoilers ahead* a good episode that highlights Scully's faults and a criticism of the selective bias and willing blindness of a normally skeptical woman.
Scully is almost comically reversed in her willingness to dismiss all evidence to the contrary.
You could say that this show subliminally serves as a criticism of religion and blind faith.
When it comes to aspects of faith Scully eagerly drops any coherent logic and accepts it but when it comes to any other idea,aliens or magic, Scully is generally resistant to admitting ANY ideas outside of the most mainstream ones.
