“The preying mantis has only one hearing organ, which is located in a groove underneath its thorax (the middle section of its body). A teardrop-shaped groove in the thorax has a thinner covering than other parts of the mantis body, and under this covering is a relatively large air sac connected to the insect’s respiratory system. Nerves near the top of this sac carry the sensation of sound to the nervous system. One truly has to question how anyone could...
Read MoreHow Do Planets Develop?
“Computer models cannot explain how dust particles stick together due to gravity. As grain size increases, so does the mean collision velocity, which would cause grains to break into smaller pieces.6 Simulations show that meter-sized particles have the highest drift speeds, about 100 m/s. This makes it quite challenging to grow to larger than meter sized objects, since collision speeds of this order will rather destroy the bodies via fragmentation or erosion.6,8...
Read MoreMADE IN HIS IMAGE!
“Psychology, the study of the mind of man, points to the uniqueness of man in creation. Since man was made in the image of God, he has capabilities far beyond any other creature. The following is a partial list of attributes that are uniquely human: Complex emotions Individual creativity Moral consciousness Appreciation of beauty Ability to think abstractly Capacity to love and worship God Ability to articulate symbolic speech No animal shares these characteristics....
Read MoreChemistry Won’t Even Allow Evolution!!
This is an awesome article that simply breaks down the idea of Evolution before it can happen!! From https://www.icr.org/article/evolution-hopes-you-dont-know-chemistry-problem-co/, see the following quotes: “Chemists are trained to understand the mechanisms of how molecules react and how to activate molecules so they will react predictably and in a controlled fashion. If a chemist wanted to synthesize the polymer chain of proteins or DNA in the...
Read MoreTrillions of Motors…in You!
“Tiny, complex motors and machines are found inside each of our cells. These really are actual motors and are so small that no ordinary microscope is capable of bringing them into focus. Ken Dill, PhD, stated on a TED talk in October, 2013, (https://www. youtube.com/watch?v=zm3kovWpNQ), that there are more of these amazing motors in the end of your finger than there are gasoline engines and electric motors in the entire world. In fact, he went on to say that humans...
Read MoreSea Monsters!!
The dragon fish lives 1,500 to 4,500 feet below the surface of the ocean – it is what is known as a “deep-sea” animal. At that depth, light is minimal, and most deep-sea creatures can only see blue light because other wavelengths do not penetrate the ocean to such great depths. In spite of this, the dragon fish can see red light because he has chlorophyll in his eyes. Yes,that’s right, chlorophyll – stuff that makes plants green. This chlorophyll allows the...
Read MoreDesign of the Tarantula Hawk!
“In some instances the codons of DNA have been shown to code for such esoteric or “alien” phenomena as animal behavior. An example is the Tarantula Hawk, a blue wasp that preys on tarantulas. As seen in the Walt Disney Home Video, The Living Desert (1953), the female wasp, when ready to lay an egg, finds a tarantula and stings it, causing the tarantula to go into suspended animation. The wasps then digs a hole in the ground, places the spider it it, lays her egg on...
Read MoreEvidence of intelligence is within us!
Evidence of Intelligence is out there! … Actually, evidence of intelligence is within us! SETI (the Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) has specific criteria to distinguish what might be evidence of someone signaling us from outer space. With that same criteria, is there evidence of an intelligent source within DNA? DNA is a coded message that shows Elegance, Complexity, Internal Consistency, and utterly alien. “The characteristics observed in the genetic...
Read MoreWhy are the large majority of animals symmetrical?
Symmetry in one form or another is just very common. Think of man-made designed machinery – there tends to be symmetry (often bilateral and/or radial). So symmetry is actually really good design. The fact that we have two eyes spread on the same level on our face helps us to gather the depth perception of the environment and helps with the amount you can see (as two eyes help to eliminate blind spots) – so that is a good design feature. For 4-legged...
Read MoreIntelligent Design is on par with the Darwinian Argument!
“Whenever we see information, especially when we find information in the digital or typographic form, and we trace it back to its ultimate source, we always come to a mind, not a material process. So the discovery that information is running the show in life, the discovery that there are these huge infusions of information in the history of life, such as the one that occurs in the Cambrian Explosion, suggests that a designing intelligence has played a role in the...
Read MoreFascinating Cave Stories!
“In 1938, two men spent 32 days inside a Kentucky cave in what may be the first such recorded experiment. In 1962, Michel Siffre (aged 23) spent two months in a cave in the Maritime Alps in France without any time cues. He repeated the experiment several times, the last time in 2000 (at age 61) for 73 days. Others have also run similar experiments of total isolation and the results have always been the same: the more time that is spent in isolation and dark,...
Read MoreFascinating facts about BATS!
Could these traits have evolved little by little? “Since females give birth hanging upside down high above the ground, there is a serious danger of the newborns falling to the ground and dying. Therefore, oftentimes one or two other females spread their wings underneath the delivering mother, ready to catch the little one if needed. God has also given bats other incredible traits. Some hibernating bats mate in the autumn, but the sperm remains dormant in the...
