Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Drmies was:
No, just no. I don’t know why someone would have submitted this. There are two links, no clear references, and both links are 404. Entire paragraphs are unverified, and the English is poor: the first sentence already is just wrong; there is no such thing as a “most extant book”. The whole thing–if I take it in good faith–reads like a sort of argumentative research project.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.
