In fact, none of us can prove anything, only try to convince others that what I hold for true is true, and as entertaining as it might seem it's really quite pointless. We've reached the point were most of the facts have been studied, right?
As you wish. I won't even bite on your comment about Eru as the One (because that can be discussed).

However, I do want to point out that I am not here on a discussion forum to "convince others that what I hold for true is true." I am here to discuss ideas, not to promulgate my personal beliefs, nor to refute the personal beliefs of others.

And as for facts, well, the number of ways they can be studied is limited only by the limits of the human mind and imagination. After all, look what Fordim did with his poll on balrogs.
