Torrid Affair

If, as the saying goes, 'There's no smoke without fire,' is it smarter to ignite a spark (illumination causation) than bedamn the dark, and thereby induce a funeral pyre, or, better yet, a safer bet, to avoid gossip and accusations, find the substantiated fact(s) (true datum) before you act and land in sorry situations? It's no joke, on soot you'll choke, yet, on the greener side, carry the torch for earth non-scorched but best your light you hide, (it may be life-transforming) beneath an unburnt bush, so as not to incur global warming.
