Jon, you must have been reading Zecheria Sitchin's book or books lately. In them, the great unanswered questions of history and time point back to his translations of Sumerian cuneiform tablets. These books, written by the world's foremost authority on cuneiform translations, offers an explanation of ancient creation myths that is rooted in science and scholarship, not conjecture. I've looked for informed criticism of his works and have found a conspicuous absence of scholarly debate. Where are the other great minds willing to take him on? Between creationism and evolution lies the source of ancient knowledge-Sumer. THE TWELFTH PLANET is the first book of the series THE EARTH CHRONICLES. Questioning minds will find them endlessly fascinating. Biblical scholars will find interpretations deepened. Evolutionists and scientists will find many of the ancient historical links that for centuries have been missing. Back to the original question, creationism vs evolution: neither explanation, by itself, is fully satisfying.
