They think that information elicited by scholars may not be necessarily correct. They stated that scientific information can be elicited not only by scholars but also by anyone. They stated that any information written in books may not be correct because some information is open to be discredited. Those who believe the correctness of information believe so as they think it correctness has been proved.
