Evolution::Creation.

"Three times the bible speaks of people acting like "an animal" (Ps. 73:22; Titus 1:23; 2 Peter 2:12). What makes the difference between a human being and an animal? One of these verses says that such people, like animals, "act without thinking." In another version of the Bible, it says that they are "creation of instinct." Animals do not think about the choices they make. They act on instinct or are trained by human beings. Only we human beings can stop and think about the choices we have to make."

--Dr. Laurence O. Richards. Author of : It Couldn't Just Happen.

Reading this gives a clear understanding that we could not have evolved from apes, or any other animal. While animals have incredible abilities, fully and masterfully designed by God, it still shows that animals could not have come from the un-knowledgeable brains they had to masterpiece brains of humans.

Let's take a look at some of the amazing creatures created by God.

The Penguin is a great example in disproving evolution. Looking at the abilities in this animal, we see how complex and wonderfully made it is. For instance, you all know that if an egg is not kept warm, the baby dies. God created this animal with a skin flap for the male. He huddles over the egg, which is covered by the skin flap, and keeps it warm.

While he does this, the female penguin leaves for a few months, searching for food. What is fascinating is that the female returns precisely at the right time, to feed the baby when it hatches. If it is late, the baby dies. How does it know exactly when to return? Some may call it a mystery. But it's not; it's the indescribable hand of the Creator.

Penguin Fact: Did you know that the penguin, who swims in freezing cold water and dwells on icebergs, is more likely to over-heat than freeze? Incredible!

Of course, there are thousands of more creatures to be discussed like the penguin,

but I'd like to move on to the symbiotic relationship, which may even fascinate you more...

There are many creatures who could not live without another provider. One of the most intriguing of the types are the termites and flagellates.

First of all, let's bring up the subject of wood. (Yes, it's an odd one at first, but you'll see why, later.) Wood includes a sizeable amount of a substance called Cellulose. We humans are unable to digest wood in any form, because of the Cellulose. But, the termites live almost completely on wood. But, Termites cannot digest cellulose either. How can they eat it if they can't digest it? (Here comes the strange, amazing part...)

Inside Termites are small organisms called Flagellates in their intestines. Flagellates are only safe when they are away from oxygen. Left in the open air, they quickly die. But, these Flagellates have the ability to digest wood! So, when the termite finishes his delicious meal of wood, the flagellates digest the cellulose for it.

What happens if these two dependent creatures are separated? Someone did an experiment to find out, exposing extra oxygen to the termite to kill the flagellates. Then they fed the termites wood. Guess what happened? They were unable to digest it.

Without the partners living together, how would they sustain life? They couldn't. What's more, is that Evolutionists believe that creatures evolved over a series of time. But, if these two creatures evolved at different times, how would they still be living today?

Termite Fact: Did you know that termites are blind creatures, unable to be around light? Yet they are able to build palaces like this!

Termites and Flagellates are not the only symbiotic couple. Many other creatures, including plants, are mutually dependent on one another to live.

Question to think about:

If Apes evolved into people, why aren't they still doing it?
