What they believe benefits them. If they believe themselves to be God and don't trust their senses, it benefits them to see themselves as God, in order to gain some grounding.

Right now you cannot falsify the data so it is a social science that reacts to unpredictable human behavior like

Economics
Statistics

In the future when the brain is easy to map using computing, psychology will be a science.
