I have a pen, and logic.—The Rule for Seeking Truth in a Chaotic World

Today I had dinner with a friend who had traveled a long way to visit.

He had just finished reading *Chronicles of the Primordial Source* and asked me a strange question:

“You say you never rely on inspiration when you write, only reasoning.

How is that even possible?”

I thought for a moment, didn’t answer directly, and instead began telling a story.

The first person in history to complete a solo, non‑stop flight across the Atlantic was Charles Lindbergh.

His father was a U.S. Congressman from Minnesota.

But very few people remember what happened to the elder Lindbergh.

He wrote two books:

Banking and Currency and the Money Trust

and

Why Is Your Country at War?

Strangely, in 1918, both books were “eradicated” by the government—

meaning printing was banned, circulation halted, and every library copy removed.

Even the printing plates for Why Is Your Country at War? were destroyed.

As if killing a person—

the government’s actions meant these books were completely “dead.”

The incident is believed to have originated from Lindbergh’s 1912 resolution to investigate the “Money Trust.”

During the subsequent congressional inquiry, Arsène Pujo revealed how J.P. Morgan and other Wall Street banks controlled vast corporate and financial resources through interlocking directorates.

The list included Morgan, the Rockefeller group, Warburg, Schiff, and other major figures.

My friend listened while searching on his phone, then interrupted me:

“Grok says Why Is Your Country at War? was reprinted starting in the 1930s.

So what exactly does your example prove?”

I asked him in return:

“Can you be certain that the destroyed version and the reprinted version contain the same text?

Just as a country can pass a law and immediately declare itself a ‘nation of the rule of law.’”

He kept searching for a long while and found nothing.

But he looked as though something had begun to dawn on him.

I remember saying this at the end:

“I may not be an exceptional writer,

but I am a mature human being.

I understand the nature of humanity.

That’s why I have an innate ability to distinguish so‑called conspiracy theories.

In this case, the absence of traces is the strongest trace;

the absence of evidence is the strongest evidence.

Evil can destroy everything—

but it cannot destroy logic.

And that is why I can keep writing, endlessly.

Humanity is still far from freedom.”
