"There's this thing called being so open minded your brains fall out."
Richard Dawkins
There are a large number of things that are highly improbable. So
improbable in fact that they can be assumed not to have occurred, unless
there is extremely good evidence otherwise. I would bet my life (and that
is not a statement I make lightly or often) that there is no good evidence
for Velikovsky's theory. It would be about as probable for a fully formed
bacteria to suddenly appear on replicator-less Earth because free floating
lipids, amino acids, nucleotides, and sugars all just collected in the
right place at the right time by random chance.
