Darwin was wrong. It was the Alantians that brought man to this planet.

Even more interesting is the theory propounded by no less a giant than the discoverer of the structure of the DNA molecule, Nobel Prize winner, Francis Crick who once hypothesized -- DIRECTED PANSPERMIA in a book entitled, LIFE ITSELF ( 1981 ).

Crick was not the only scientist to toy with this idea. Astronomer Sir Fred Hoyle and his colleague, Chandra Wickramasinghe ( still with Cardiff University ) also posited that life on earth was "seeded" via PANSPERMIA.

Hoyle compared the random emergence of even the simplest cell to the likelihood that "a tornado sweeping through a junk-yard might assemble a Boeing 747 from the materials therein." Hoyle also compared the chance of obtaining even a single functioning protein by chance combination of amino acids to a solar system full of blind men solving Rubik's Cube simultaneously.

I think the "Darwinist" response to that is that such an occurrence is inevitable if you have an infinite number of solar systems full of blind men trying to solve Rubik's Cubes.
