I’m kidding here, but the similarities are odd. The weather is always between 70F and 85F all year round. The biggest threat to you on the island are apples. You shouldn’t eat the apples that grow on the island; the small green ones are poisonous. Oh, and it isn’t easy to immigrate there. It’s a place where only few people are allowed to reside. Oh, and did I mention the abundant variety of plants and animals on the island?

Christianity stole material from everywhere else, why not an explorers report on the island

The Galapagos weren't known to Christians until the mid 16th c. so there's a bit of a timing problem of over a couple thousand years.
