I’m kidding here, but the similarities are odd. The weather is always between 70F and 85F all year round. The biggest threat to you on the island are apples. You shouldn’t eat the apples that grow on the island; the small green ones are poisonous. Oh, and it isn’t easy to immigrate there. It’s a place where only few people are allowed to reside. Oh, and did I mention the abundant variety of plants and animals on the island?

Christianity stole material from everywhere else, why not an explorers report on the island

The Galapagos weren't known to Christians until the mid 16th c. so there's a bit of a timing problem of over a couple thousand years.

Were there people exploring the Galapagos in 1000 BCE?

You do know that Genesis wasn’t written by Christians do you

Do you really believe Jesus couldn't travel through time?

User name checks out. Are you from Texas, or are you drunk, or both? Well, you’re forgiven because either would explain why you’d believe he could (if he existed).

I'm both, but apparently someone's sarcasm detector needs calibration. Alternatively my sarcasm creator needs a bit of tweaking.

I'm well aware that Doc Brown, Marty McFly, Bill, Ted, and The Doctor are the only people who can time travel.
