Summary/Abstract: I will present my considerations in the context of classic bivalent modal logics, and on the direct basis I made two expressions “authority to challenge" and "authority of indisputable". From the point of view of semantics, they are least understood. The reason is that every external authority, regardless of how it will be called (eg tradition, person, institution, charismatic etc., etc.) a priori is a contestable or irrefutable authority. It results from time relativism, relativism of the place, relativism of language competence and relativism of knowledge. Therefore, I argue that all evaluation should be formulated in problematic sentences about the possibility of bilateral.
