Ok in that case, it would be the aliens right? (As I doubt you would accept a natural explanation.)I suppose that there are many more assumptions you would have to make to embrace the "thin air" hypothesis...
Let's hypothesize the explantion with less assumptions first.
So let's put it to the test. Aliens are advanced extraterrestrial beings, is that an plausible?
1) Given that the Universe is 14.7 billion years old and Earth roughly 4.5 billion, that leaves us with a few billions of years where another lifeform could have evolved and become a highly advanced civilization.
2) We know that life can exist in the Universe as we are living examples of such ourselves, therefore it is definitely possible for others lifeforms to exist as well.
3) Seeing how technology and our understanding of the natural world have evolved in just a few thousand years, from simple stone tools to landing on the moon. It is impossible to guess what an alien civilization that have been around for million of years would be capable of.
4) Clearly if we know the following after just a few thousand years:
All things are made of atoms, and all atoms are made of the same three basic particles - protons, neutrons, and electrons. But, all atoms are not the same. You know that the number of protons in an atom determines what element you have.
Is it unreasonable to think that an alien race, being around for millions of years, would know slightly more about how the Universe works? And therefore would be able to travel to Earth to create an island, that we perceive as being beautiful, but which they ended up not to, so they left again?
Honestly, there are a quite a bit loose ends and things that are not explained. but is it completely impossible given what we know about the Universe? I don't think so.
So what evidence or plausible explanations can you provide for God, making the island if you think that is a more simple explanation with less assumptions?
