Mars, Mercury May Have Formed From Earth and Venus 73
goran72 sends along a report on a radical new theory of planet formation that suggests that Mars and Mercury were formed from the scraps of Earth and Venus. The theory has testable predictions — for example that the compositions of the rocky inner planets should be more similar than the current theory of planet formation would have them.

Venus and Earth are not even married! And now they are trying to say that Mars and Mercury are illegitimate children of a lesbian union of planets?!
NO! I will not accept it! GOD DID IT! Things are the way they are because God did it that way and need no further explanation!
