understand:

If something is totally independent of everything else, and relies only 
on internal logic, not on consistency with other sources of information, 
it is called RELIGION,  which is consistent with "Panbiogeograpy," the 
holy scripture of which is Croizat's wonderfully ambiguous and totally 
unreadable (except by the faithful) books of the same title.
