There is no proof. There are no authorities whatever. No president, Academy, Court of Law, Congress or Senate on this earth has the knowledge or power to decide what will be the knowledge of tomorrow.

Only the good old rules of learning will eventually bring about understanding of what has invaded our earthly existence.
