Strong delete The term VIGE is the creation of a Dutch creationist (who as a Wikipedia user created this page) who tries to use Wikipedia to legitimate his "theory" as science and spread the word. This page is an offshoot of GUToB Theory, which has already been deleted earlier. This blog should suffice to prove that this is all about creationism and not science. -- Zoeperkoe (talk) 17:50, 11 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
