I disagree with this.

Although getting your story written is more important than worrying about length, it ALWAYS helps to edit it. If you read long fantasy series (and I include Wheel of Time,...

I should congratulate you on having a working version on XP. That's rare enough from what I've seen. Pity I can't actually help though.

I don't know... It's getting slightly into belief/faith (which is understandable) and slightly off-topic (which always happens).

And Nemo, if you're taking that attitude you will have to reject...

It has a valid place. Evolution theory leaves a nice blank space about how the protocell developed; essentialy how life began, what the first cells evolved FROM.

2 tips:

1. Posting it all in bold is a bit strange. It makes the words bulky and slower to read. I understand why you did it (it makes each word easier to read) but it is a bit of a bad idea.

There should be a "pick up" button when you are crouched over a grenade. Try crouching on it and pressing circle or square like Chubfish said.

This topic has hibernated many times, it was due for a bump. It's still on topic and not too big, so no mod should care.

Actualy, all you see is a 2-D image rendered to appear 3-D.

With more than one view, you could comprehend a 4th dimension {or with some other variable such as spectral/colour shift}.
