In recent years a&nbsp;growing number of scientists are focusing on the theory of evolution and subjecting it to a&nbsp;thorough analysis. The planned publication, accompanied by a&nbsp;feature-length documentary film entitled <i>Achillovy paty evoluce<\/i> (<i>Evolution\u2019s Achilles\u2019 Heel<\/i>) looks at what they found.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For more information and photographs in print quality please contact:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Juraj Tur\u00f3ci<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Maranatha z.s.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Telefon: +420&nbsp;224&nbsp;210&nbsp;571<strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>E-mail:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:juraj.turoci@maranatha.cz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">juraj.turoci@maranatha.cz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Marcela \u0160tefcov\u00e1<\/p>\n<p><strong>Crest Communications a.s.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mobil: (+420) 731\u00a0613\u00a0669<\/p>\n<p>E-mail: <a href=\"mailto:marcela.stefcova@crestcom.cz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">marcela.stefcova@crestcom.cz<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4363,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[],"class_list":["post-4367","tiskove-zpravy","type-tiskove-zpravy","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
