Zermatism

a pseudoscience attributed to Stanislav Szukalski, a skilled Polish artist. As per the doctrine, all human culture has its origin in Easter Island following the Deluge which killed all living beings except those on Noah’s Ark. The doctrine maintains that all languages are derived from a single source known as the Protong and all cultures are just a variation of the themes representing a series of universal symbols. The doctrine further explains that races have diversified due to crossbreeding of species.

Zermatism has no scientific legs to stand on. It is merely a superstition.
