There are 815,000+
arthropods (lobsters, shrimp, crabs, spiders, etc.). Some of them live in
water and some live on land.
Looking at just the crab
and lobster, it would be reasonable to find 4 or 5 distinctive differences
between all the arthropods. If so, we have a round figure of 40,000,000
changes that had to happen over 150,000,000 years. This does not include
the remarkable original critter that started the necessary changes.
This means we have to have
an average of one significant change every 38+ years. This is curious,
since we have not seen any changes in recorded history.
We have another serious problem to
solve. It seems all the differences are
necessary for the unique survival mechanisms of our arthropodic friends.
The changed had to happen for the different critters to survive, but they
could not survive without the changes. This is a no-win situation!
It takes more
faith to believe in this unbelievable scenario than to believe that
God created the critters in the first place. Isn't faith a religious term?
