The New Emperor doesn’t like to be questioned, thus burn the old empire and history away so we can forge a new world.

This reset happened across many civilizations and every library burned equated to 1000s of lifetimes worth of research and discovery lost to the ego of brutes.

I’m referring to the intellectual step. It’s easy to declare someone else wrong! But now I should justify my position, at least to myself…likely in my personal journal.

I do not accept the many definitions and/or claims regarding divinity and/or supernatural phenomenon.

The easy part is done.

The most difficult, most exhausting, most confusing search for truth begins.

Now that I realized “argument from authority” is a major fallacy, it is up to me to discover everything.

What have you discovered?

Regardless of the law, from my personal POV I say the mother committed the crime of forgery on an official document and should be handled through the civil court, not criminal court.

They like to shock you with a blunt question then answer it for you if you can’t.
