The Dragon in My Garage

It is a parable about the attitude of people who believe stories without scientific basis, such as conspiracy theories or religion.

In general, whenever such conspiracy theorists are pointed out that there is no evidence that the conspiracy theory they believe in is true, they have countered that there is no evidence that it is false either. This is called "Papagiannis's law": 'absence of evidence is not evidence of absence' — in other words, the lack of evidence that a theory is true cannot be used to conclude that it is false.
