I thought people were allowed to express their spiritual beliefs on Journeys. My understanding is that AG is a trained professional who saw stuff that her textbooks couldn't explain. When she said she saw some stuff that was really weird she also said that all her co-workers felt the same thing, and they were all trained professionals too. (I'm quoting her with caps for emphasis.)
"MANY of us who worked in psychiatric crisis stabilization did this sort of thing--sometimes we'd sprinkle the doorposts with holy water and do a little dance to the four winds when we knew a particularly bad case was coming in. We'd say we were just being superstitious, and then go ahead with our protective rituals. It made us feel better"
