Absurd, irreducible; nothing — not even a profound and secret delirium of nature — could explain it. Obviously I did not know everything, I had not seen the seeds sprout, or the tree grow.

Talk to them, get them to explain what their reasons are, and show them to people. What's wrong with this idea?!
