Apparently Mediterranean sea grass is the longest living organism known, it's believed that a meadow off the Balearic island of Formentera may be up to 200,000 years old!

This really is quite an amazing story!
If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Remember, your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.
