mr “educated in science”

how completely absurd

it is a famously discredited and futile attempt to restore a bit of credibility to “evolution” .wherever you copied it from, it is desperately all over the internet.

“small invaginations develop” they just “develop” what function did these invaginations serve untli the beetle “learned to wiggle”? how did it learn to wiggle? how many cosmic rays and birth defects did it take until the beetles central nervous system was reorganized so that it should wiggle? do you think the beetle “figured out” how to wiggle, then teaches this wiggling to its larvae? how did this occur without damaging the preexisting perfectly functioning neurological organization? after a million years of reorganization, how was it reorganized further to wiggle only when certain predators were recognized? (we dont want the wiggling to deplete its store of toxins when no predators are present.) after it learned to wiggle when predators were present, how many more millions of years were needed for the brilliant mother evolution to teach it that it should only wiggle when the predator is a certain distance? too far and its a waste, too close and its too late. and how many more birth defects did it take until it could wiggle in the direction of the predator? what good were the invaginations when the toxin was distributed over its skin? how did the surface of the invaginations learn to make more of the toxin to fill the invagination? if the skin toxins were effective why did they stop making them?

none of the components of this complex system can function without the others.

invaginations happened

invaginations deepen

muscles move

some invaginations deepen

some disappear

cells develop

channels appear

muscles move some more

no intelligence is directing this

nothing but randomness.

nothing of consequence is said

your “proposed scenario is almost as full of holes as the evolution fantasy itself.

here is how a mousetrap is made when a tornado travels through a junkyard:

a piece of wood appears

a nail is bent by the wind pushing it against a pipe (pipes and nails are common in a junkyard) the wind then pushes the point of the nail into the piece of wood

a spring is forced from a childs toy

the spring has pointed ends and is stuck in the wood across from the nail

the spring is attached to a firm metal wire which was previously bent by the wind…i havent got any more time for this nonsense
