> A long-standing response in philosophy agrees that touch is more objective than the other senses.

Seeing envolves some degree of believing, while touching gives a irrefutable sensation. That's why those magic tricks that allow you to touch have a greater impact than just seeing it happen in a stage.

Tries to explain why touch is more reassuring than other senses, by using psychology. But far more likely, its because its a lower brain function. Its wiring not thinking that makes it so.
