Arthur Conan Doyle believed in fairies, for Cthulhu’s sake. He argued that their existence explains the divine purpose behind those parts of nature that aren’t immediately visible to mankind. (basically God made those parts of nature for the sake of fairies)
Arthur Conan Doyle wasn’t even one of the minor rationalists of the 19th century, let alone of the great ones.
