It is 1692 once again. The Salem Witch Trials resume with feverish malice consuming the populace. No one can stand up to the inquisitors and deny their certitude in the pursuit and conviction of those deemed to be witches. To the inquisitors, denial of the existence of witchcraft is a certain sign of the guilt of person denying its existence. Furthermore, the accused is required to prove the non-existence of the purported criminal activity. Proving the non-existence of a non-existent entity requires all-knowing knowledge which is the role of God. Anyone accepting the challenge to prove such a non phenomenon must consider himself to be God which is heretical. Heretics must be punished. . . However, proving the non-existence of a non-existent entity is a logical fallacy. Nonetheless, the current mood, or vibe, has moved beyond the realm of logic.
