Given your training, I'd say it would be impossible to separate your
"intuition" from your training the in current models and ability to reason
within that framework. It seems obvious that the universe fits your models
when you think "through" those models. This would be valid if the universe
was intuitive to a child, not to a man who digests and applies
mathematical models to the universe for a living.
