Got a good question for regarding the WT book, "Life - How Did It Get Here? By Evolution or By Creation?"
This book quotes author Francis Hitchings(The Neck of The Giraffe)many times. Francis Hithcings is neither a scientist nor a geologist. Who is he? Hitchings is a paranormalist and an advocate for psychic evolution. He has written on Mayan Pyramid Power; believes evolution was directed by a cosmic force(aliens from another planet);is a member of the Society For Psychcal Research, The British Society of Dowsers,and The American Society of Dowsers. His books include: Earth Magic; Dowsing, The Psi Connection; Mysterious World; An Atlas of the Unexplained; Fraud, Mischief and the Supernatural. He claimed to be a member of the Royal Archaeological Institute but he was not. He implied that Paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould helped inthe writing of teh Neck of The Giraffe, which is false. Zoologist Richard Dawkins of the University of Oxford was also implied to have helped in writing the book but upon inquiry Dawkins knew nothing about Hitchings.
Hithcings is best known for his TV script writing for the British TV show "In Search of..." which is similiar to the American TV show "Unsolved Mysteries."
I would love to hear a JW's explanation of why this man is quoted so many times in a Watchtower publication.
