This extract from your book is something that bothered me the most.... Page 10, last but one paragraph on the page.

Quote:
Regarding penissize, there are no studies that confirmed any proof of evolution. In the matter of penis size, there is nothing against the creationism theory.
Where might Creationism come into this? Oh, also, mankind evolved according to accepted scientific view, not mutate but let's not start a discussion about that here.

Are you a native English or American speaker? If so, please do have your book proofread. I was a writer for most of my life and yes, like every other writer, I can never spot my mistakes, that's why you, like I, should work with a professional at some university, usually someone who has a PhD in English/American. You are unlikely to gain credibility if your publication is packed with grammatical and orthographical errors.

It's one of the curses of the writing profession that knowing what you wanted to write, you will only ever skim the page, regardless of how thorough you may think you are, you are still going to overlook major mistakes and that's from someone who's done this for donkeys years. Trust me, I know what I am talking about. I had a translation come back to me from Akzo Nobel one day. They told me that I had produced a major error. Even when the pointed it out to me exactly where, I still failed to spot it until they acutally highlighted the word 'not' that I had inadvertently added, completely twisting the meaning.

This comment was not proofread! LOL

Update:

Sorry to be such a pest but may I ask what exactly are your own scientific credentials? I failed to find any mention of those. Also, you frequently refer to 'us', now who might 'us' be?
