Ratings and reviews

It's a shame people like Brian still believe in Darwin's lies. Over 90% of his "theories" have been proven scientifically false. And the other lies soon will be as well. When Darwin was alive they knew nothing of anything smaller than an amoeba. Also, there is not ONE shred of evidence proving evolution. Not one scientist can show a path or lineage showing an evolved animal. If it's true, show one line. They can't because it doesn't exist. "Lucy" was proven to walk on her knuckles due to the fact her hand and wrist bone structure is the exact same as forest gorillas. Sorry, but evolution is also statistically not possible. Do the math. Random mutations, which would cause evolution can not occur that many times in such a short period of time...and yes, 4.5 billion years is considered short in the case of evolution and random mutations. Someone needs to do their homework and learn the real facts...scientifically it's just not possible.

Evolution is accepted because it is true. And the truth shall set you free from lies. And the biggest lie of all is in the Bible. We were created by our mother earth not by a being. There was no sentient life before the creation of Earth. In fact it took over 20 billion years for the Earth to be in the right conditions to create sentient life. Those who believe in God are delusional and should be locked up with the mentally insane.

In typical fashion, claims of science falsehoods are supported by nothing other than a single book. You will learn nothing and set yourself back hundreds of years in the understanding of the universe.
