Check out the wing structure on a dragonfly. Trusses provide support for rigidity while at the same time being lightweight. A super thin 'skin' to enable lift to occur.. Skin is clear to reduce visibility to predators.. BRILLIANT!

The back of a tiger's ear has 'spots' so when it has it's back turned to another animal, the other animal thinks it's being watched.. BRILLIANT!

I love it! The more science tries to disprove God, the more we see His hand in everything. I love it!

I have a degree in mechanical engineering. The best minds in the world can't create a machine this complex. But there is more.

When people compare the mature dragonfly to a flying robot, they fail to consider the fact that the dragonfly developed from a microscopic size, to its mature size, requiring only minimal organic inputs. Try to imagine developing a robot like that. And yet this creature is supposed to have developed by chance. What could be more absurd?

One could almost envision the blueprints and construction drawings for that creature. The uniformity and precision of honeycombs in the bee world is pretty fascinating, also.
