Why on earth would I do that if I thought it was a terrible idea? That's nuts. Science and our understanding of our island, the planet, and the universe have progressed by questioning ideas and hypotheses, and you just want someone to say "good idea"? What's the point of a forum like this if people can't disagree and explain why they don't?
You probably won't like this. I don't know if you watched Inherit the Wind, but religion or supernatural beings do not explain how the Islands came to be, how Earth formed, or the Solar System it's in, or the Galaxy of the billions of other galaxies we observe and why distant galaxies are moving away from us. There is no testable religious answer to that, but you want someone to say "good idea" when they post nonsense.
