(This is Incomplete Version) The Necessity of Strict Adherence to Causality Across All Academic Disciplines: Academia as a Game Governed by Causality

Modern academia suffers from a profound neglect of causality, the very foundation of all scholarly inquiry. Although causality remains an unproven experiential belief, it must be embraced with blind faith; without this axiom, neither description nor inference is possible. A theory is strictly bound by its specific preconditions, and any forced expansion beyond these leads to a decisive collapse of logical consistency, rendering further theoretical development impossible. This paper argues that even the most dominant frameworks—Kant’s philosophy, Special Relativity, and Quantum Mechanics—suffer from such foundational deviations and are essentially invalid as coherent theories. While strict adherence to causality renders the attainment of absolute truth impossible, it remains the only method for generating human-intelligible descriptions. Recognizing academia as a "game" governed by causality is essential to halt the immense squandering of human talent and resources on invalid, ad hoc constructs and to restore the legitimacy of scholarly inquiry.
