THE media is full of evolutionary talk these days.
It is taught in schools as fact, when the truth is it is still only a theory, it is not fact.
Professor Fred Hoyle, the former astronomer royal, said “the odds of life having spontaneously formed on earth are the same as for a whirlwind blowing through a junkyard and assembling a Boeing 747 ready for take off”.
The fact is there are big holes in the evolutionary theory and intelligent design is a much more likely solution.
In 1812 a well documented woman’s skeleton was discovered buried in a massive sandstone block over a mile in length on the island of Guadeloupe.
Known as Guadeloupe Woman she was 5ft 2 inches tall with head and feet missing. The rock was dated at 28million years old, 25million years before we were supposed to be here.
You will find little reference to this in evolutionary texts.
She was quietly moved to the basement of the British Museum after the publication of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution and I believe she is still there.
Perhaps she should be returned to a place where the public can view her again? It would certainly start a debate.
