How mammals of the world show the glory of God

Quarter One 2010
Blue Whales
Grace Li
God has given us this marvellous creation………..which is us the Blue Whale! If we evolved over millions of years it would be impossible because if we evolved then we would start from different creatures. We are mainly about our size. It would be hopeless to evolve anything that enormous. Human should be pleased for us. We blue whales are tremendous creatures. Our heart is the size of an automobile and our tongue weighs as much as an elephant. We sure are really blue. When we are high in the air we are kind of a blue-gray color. We can eat 4.5 tons by using our baleen. We usually eat krill. Our baleen is located on top of our giant mouth. We are called baleen whales because we have baleen. That’s how we eat:
1: We gulp a mouthful of water, so our throat and belly can take it in.
2: Next, our tongue forces the water out by using our spout.
3: Last, thousand of krill are left behind that we swallow.
God has given us baleen and that’s how we get 4.5 tons. If we evolved it would be too hard. We are about 100 feet long and weigh about 200 tons. You can find us in every ocean in the world. We sometimes swim in small groups called pods. We usually go alone or in pairs. We are the fastest swimmers in the whole world. We can swim up to 20 miles per an hour. We sure are fast swimmers. We are also the loudest animal on the planet. We groan and moan. We can be heard up to 1,000 miles away. We are so grateful God has created us like that! We have a spout. Not just us but our other whale friends. We shoot water in the air so we can breathe. We can exhalation in the water and in the air. Our spout can emit water in the air high up to 30 feet. Our babies are big. They stay in their mother’s womb for a year. They only drink their mother’s milk and gain 200 pounds everyday for the first year. Our babies weigh about 3 tons and are the size of 25 feet. We are also the creature that lives the longest. We can live from 80 to 90 years. My friend live to 110 years which is the longest blue whale ever lived! There are only 10,000 to 25,000 of us still alive. In the 1900s whales were killed by humans seeking for our oil. Finally we were protected in1966 by the International Whaling Commission. We are also killed by killer whales and sharks. Now you have to know that evolution is wrong and that we blue whale couldn’t have evolved over millions of years. Evolving was not possible because of the size of us blue whales. We blue whales are mostly about size. It would be impossible for us to be created by evolution. If evolution were true we blue whales wouldn’t be that big. We must be cheerful and enjoyable that God made us so magnificent. Thanks God for us.
Dolphin
Ye Eun Kwag
We dolphins are wonderful creatures of God. It's a fact that we are mammals. I have a black stripe on my back, with striking light gray flanks and a white belly. Two gray stripes run along the entire length of my back. These markings are easily seen from above when we are riding bow waves, also we have a short snout, or beak, and long curved pectoral flippers. My black and grey dorsal fin is tall and curved. Do you know how many teeth we have? Maybe you don't know. I have counted my teeth before. We have 29teeth on each side of the upper jaw, and 32 on each side of the lower jaw.
We have strong teeth, but, our teeth are not used to chew. We swallow our food whole. We are also warm blooded. We have a four-chambered heart. Nurse our young from mammary gland. Did you know that we have hair? We also have hair like a human, but, not very much, because, to much hair would slow us down in the water. God's wisdom is amazing!!
Are we generally playful animals? Yes, we are. It is a fact that we spend most of our time playing. We are totally crazy about balls, hoolahoops, and the trainers themselves are also treated as a toy. Mostly, I play with balls. It's really fun, and I also like to swim fast. Do you know how fast we swim? We can go over 20miles per hour when we work hard. Our body shape helps us swim fast. Our body is shaped like a tube that is pointed at both ends. This streamlining helps the water flow over our body as it swims.
I am proud of our brain. We are smart !! I don't know how smart we are exactly, but, it is a fact that we can use tools to solve problems, we are also great at developing communication. So I thanked God that he gave us good brain. Thank you God!!
I want to tell you what we eat… mostly a variety of fish and squid. Fish are our main food. Even more, the large dolphins like the killer whales, eat some other marine mammals like seals or sea lions and sometime even turtle.
We are use whistles and other sounds to communicate. We send out sounds to find food. The sounds bounce back from whatever they hit, and the dolphins can tell what it is. This is called echolocation. Human cannot hear it.
We are created by Almighty God and we are designed by God. Our body and its design show that God took time to think about us. Thank you God that we have a smart brain, can communicate a streamlined body and everything else you gave us.
Elegant Design
Jonathan Tewksbury
I am the Thompson's Gazelle, or swala, which means prayer, of Tanzania—the most graceful and alert animal my Creator has designed. Some may have their doubts, but I'm sure, for I am capable of out-running the fastest animal. I can survive on minimal amounts of water. I astound both humans and other animals with my sharp turns at break-neck speeds.
As I graze at the golden grass of the Serengeti, my ears hear a faint rustle in the grass, and then a soft snap of a twig. My head shoots up. My eyes scan the amber fields before me. I spot it, the yellow devil, the cheetah, cleverly camouflaged in her natural surroundings. I stop and swallow my food and put all my attention on the vague silhouette of a dangerously fast foe. Suddenly, it lunges, and my heart skips a beat. Left, right, left, right. I dart to and fro striving to last one more day. And finally, after the longest fourteen seconds of my life, I live to tell another story of how I out-ran the “devil.”
Greetings, human. If you had closed your eyes while you were listening to someone read the previous paragraph to you, you would have gotten a vivid picture of what a chase can be like. Yes, yes, I know the whole obsession with cheetahs being so cool because they're so fast. Put yourself in my shoes, erm, hooves. You guys are at the top of the food chain, so you don't know what it's like to dread predators night and day. But someone did. Someone showed extreme sympathy for us and designed us to be, well, superb!
I would like you to contemplate my sensory organs, my eyes and ears to be exact. As you can see, my eyes are located in a rather different place than your eyes. Your eyes can see only about one hundred and twenty degrees, which is completely useless in the open savanna—the place I was designed for. My eyes can view about two hundred and eighty degrees—talk about panoramic view! As you also can see, my pupils are quite a bit larger than yours, and inside my eyes I have more rods than cones. God designed me this way so my eyes can pick up miniscule differentiations in light input, and therefore, movements far more efficiently that you can. Besides that, all the rods at the back of my eyes give me “night vision.” Enough of the eyes, let's go on to the ears. My ears are in no way less special than my eyes, Oh no! My ears can turn in a myriad of directions. All I do is twitch them towards the direction I hear a foreign noise, whereas you humans must turn you entire head, that must be why you say “a pain in the neck....” Each of my ears can function individually which, like I have previously stated, allows me to turn them in practically any direction. With this function, I can then triangulate the approximate position of the rustle that I heard. Cool eh?
Moving down to my torso, which is sleek and aerodynamic—one of the reasons why a, I am well obfuscated in the solid yellow of the savanna, and b, I run so fast. You see, inside my torso is an amazing structure called a skeleton. As I run at eighty kilometers per hour and make a sharp turn, all that force is shoved into my skeletal frame, which, acting like a slinky, directs the energy towards the other side, preparing me for my next sharp turn. My muscular structure is pretty amazing, too. I can run at eighty kilometers per hour for twenty minutes. The fastest human can't run half that fast for a tenth of that time. Further outward from the muscle is my resplendent coat. One of the many amazing things about this coat is my pale underside. My underside is almost white. This deflects the heat reflected up off the savanna, keeping me and my blood cool. Another “cool” design feature in me is my blood-cooling system. Once oxygenated blood has been pumped back from the lungs, it goes to the heart, through the aorta and some, the some that goes to my brain, is pumped through the nasal lining, dramatically cooling it, and then to the brain. This enables me to “keep my cool” while shooting along, dodging predators, and the like. If evolution had taken place, and I tell ya, that's ONE BIG “IF,” I'd faint from heat stroke during a chase, thus becoming “cheetah chowder.”
It is advised that humans drink eight cups of water a day. Well, my digestive system absorbs almost all the water out of the grass and shrubs I eat. In fact, I only drink water when there's a nice little water hole.
Even with all these fantastic features stuffed into one complete, flawless package, I look, if I may, exceedingly beautiful and graceful. Imagine yourself with eyes where your temples currently are, or with ears that could twitch every which-way, or how 'bout a stout torso like me, or even sharp spear-like antlers on your head. You would look pretty hilarious indeed. You see, God designed this body, and it is B-U-tiful. How could chance make blood go through the nasal lining on its way to the brain. No way! By chance and chaos come death and destruction, and that's one of your scientific laws!
What is it enables me to out-run the cheetah? It's all of these features combined that allow me to out-run this devilishly fast beast. I see and hear her before she takes off for me and I'm off the split second she leaves her hiding spot for me. As I dart away I use my zig-zag running to out-last the cheetah, because she can't turn as fast.
As you can see, I am like no other, designed for speed and vigilance, and yet I am the most beautiful creatures God has made. No chance could make beauty even close to us, no explosion could bring about such elegance and artistry. The next time you look at a picture of or a real-life Thompson's gazelle, or any animal for that matter, think about what I've said and thank God for creating me so.
Wait a second, did you hear that ?
Title: We Pigs are amazing!
Jasmine
For so long a time we pigs have been treated so unfairly by humans. Now I must try my best to make humans learn one of the most amazing creations of God.
People, guess how many years we pigs can live. The answer is... 10 years to 15 years IF people don’t kill us! How sad that we can only live about that much. You people can live about 100 years! We feel so jealous, but it’s ok, because we have so many amazing parts which are better than humans'. You people fight against each other because of so many reasons but we have fantastic relationships with our friends and also with the other kinds of creations of the GOD. One time a horrible scientist visited us and wanted to make us frustrated, but we won and the idiot scientist lost and cried. We only get angry when our friends are in danger. We are so happy that God made us for a reason. I know he always creates things for a reason, but sometimes i forget that because I hate stupid, crazy, mean, and bloodsucking mosquitos.
Now, I want to argue with you people. because you people don’t believe that we can talk, the people believe we pigs can only eat and sleep. When they describe some lazy person, they call them pigs! How can people insult us! Right, we like to eat tremendous amounts of foods. For example: fruits, roots, mushrooms, grasses, earthworms, and rodents. Even though we eat so much food we don’t get sick because our digestive system is good. You people think that eating is a bad habit. Think about yourselves, what do you human beings like? You like money, gambling, and put bizarre things called lotion on your face, but anyway your skin will be so winkled it would look like a toilet paper. Look at us, we enjoy our life in the mud and we are fantastic swimmers Most people's favorite animal is a dog, because they want to be the master, but how can they be the master? The only master in the world is God! not people! Do you know that we are actually smarter than dogs and we are the fourth smartest animal? People like dogs because they obey, but we will not! We will only obey God! God gave us a fantastic sense which is the ability to smell and we are very sensitive to the surroundings. We can determine different odors through smelling and also use that ability to find out our favorite food in the trash. Sometimes we help police find the felon. You people eat vitamin e, vitimin a, and eat lots of things that you think is good. You dont know that the real vitamin is God! Water is the most important thing for a pig's diet as, a pigs body is one-half to two-thirds water. We can drink up to 14 gallons of water a day! Wow, that must suprise you! A part from other creatures God gives one special gift to one creature. What he gave us is a cute tail which shows God's glory. How sad that humans have no tail like us! We love our wonderful and curly tail. In some ways we are same with other creatures. We also give milk to our babies. We offer one of the most important foods to humans except for Islam and Judaism. Even though people kill us, we feel happy because they treat us as a kind of pet. People, its fun to play with us, because we are such a clever animal!
Though I have showed you human so many talents we pigs have. I don’t mean that we are superior to you. I just want to tell you that all of Gods creation has its own talent. It’s not right to show off our talents that God gave us. Even if you human beings like to show off your talents, we will not.
Horse
Michael Liang
Only an amazing God could design me, a horse that runs fast and is a useful tool for you to travel from place to place is not an accident. Can you imagine life without me before you had a car? I guess ninety-nine percent of you don’t know much about me even through you have ridden me before. Let me teach you something.
See me eating those juicy grasses? Look at the delectable grass in my large and impregnable mouth. Not actually grass now but grass juice instead. My sharp teeth were designed by my creator flat to chew those green grasses not to bite red meat like you. If you think logically you will know not only my mouth is needed to eat those hard to digest grasses, my strong stomach is designed to digest grass too.
Did you see that juicy horse running “largo” there? Watch his heavy body. Our body is designed for running. We have substantial legs. Horses today have horse shoe on our feet for protecting. Can you walk for several kilometers without wearing out you shoes? Unless you have iron feet, you can’t. Now look at the running horse’s stunning tail, do you know what that is for? It’s not just there for decoration, it is designed for balance when we run, if we travel without that tail, we fall down.
Look at my immense eyes. Not like yours that only look forward, we can look at the front, two sides, and some of the back. Our eyes are designed to see so many things because we have many predators who want to tear us apart. Do you know which land mammal has the biggest eye? It is us, the horse.
If you have never fed us before, you won’t know this; a 450 kilogram horse eats seven to eleven kilograms of food a day. Another way our Creator designed us to protect our selves is our ears. Our cool ears can listen 360 degrees without moving our big head so we can know which direction the enemy is coming from. Our Creator is amazing; he designed these useful ears for us. See him? The one who is coming? He is my old friend, Old Billy, he is the oldest horse in the world, 62 years old now. We usually live 25 to 30 years not like you who can live to 90 something.
We even us have bad habits too, not only humans have bad habits. Like my naughty son, he chews wood, kick walls, he is a perverse horse. I thank you because you train us. It is a bid tiring but we get stronger and know more skills. In horse history, humans and horses have been friends since 3500BC, which is a long time. You needed to thank me too because we have been helping you in wars, farming, and some other works.
I think it is time for me to sleep now; we usually rest in herds, not like you. Some of us sleep lying, some sleep standing, some watch if enemies are coming. It’s not an accident that our amazing God designed me as I proved to be a beautiful animal for you to travel around on. God know you need me so he made me. I feel sleepy now. Goodbye.
The Sperm Whale Shows God’s Glory
Seung Hun Shin
We sperm whales are wonderfully created by God. Do you want to know how wonderful we are?? If you want to know, listen!!!
I have a huge brain that weighs about 20 pounds. I think that is the reason why my head is so big. I also have a thick layer of blubber that is about 4~12 inches.
Maybe you think all the water animals or mammals can’t breathe inside the water, but that’s not true. Do you know that I can’t breathe inside the water?? But I can stay inside the water for about 1~3 hours. Because I can pump a lot of oxygen to my lungs. My blowhole is about 20 inches long, and it located on the left side of the front part of my head.
We sperm whales are the largest toothed whales. I will tell you how long and how huge our teeth are. For males, it grows about 50~60 feet long, and is also very heavy. For females, it grows about 33~40 feet long. That means, my teeth is bigger than you. Ha-ha!!
The color of our skin is usually dark gray to black, but is occasionally light gray. It has a distinctive, prune-like texture.
Do you like to it squid? We usually eat giant squid, and we also eat fish, octopus, and skate. They taste very good. Do you know how we hunt? We hunt by shooting the sound.
Maybe you can’t believe us, but I don’t care, because is true.
I can swim very well, because God created tail for us. If we don’t have tail, maybe we can’t even swim better than you, and I also can stick my tail out of the water and swings around, then it makes a loud sound. I enjoy it!!! It shows our feelings and sometimes we communicate with this..
Because God gave us special eyes, we can open our eyes inside the water. I am very because I can see the wonderful creation of the seas.
Now, do you know how wonderful we are? Do you want to see us with your two eyes? Come to any seas except Arctic, because is to cold for us to live there. We will be waiting for you!!
I am very thankful to God, because He gave me ability to see the wonderful creations in the seas, I am also very happy to be a sperm whale, because we sperm whales don’t have to do any PACE works and we don’t have to wake up very early. Haha!! We just need to go to hunt, but I think, hunt is harder than doing PACE works. You should be thankful and you should not complain about the food that you eat even if your foods taste really bad. You know… we have to eat almost the same things every day? Try to eat the same things every day. At first, maybe is okay, but after one week, you will hate that food, so you should be thankful for everything what you eat. I am always thankful for what I have and what I eat.
Skunks Show God’s Mind at Work
EunChong Shin
Have you ever got a whiff of a skunks’ smell? We skunks are incredibly created creatures. You might have known us by the fact that our odor smells fetid. However, we skunks are God created lovely animals. Which means that our specialty is not only our odor, but we also have many other remarkable features. When you scrutinize our live, you'll see that our design shows God's mind at work. You people might think I am just a little smelly mammal. Don't you? I hope not! We have more fabulous features that no other animals have, which give us fame and a little fear! You might be curious about us now! It is hard for me to wait to introduce us, and our lives!
We skunks are also called 'Mephitis', which means “bad odor.” I don't like this name, I like to be called 'skunk’. Anyway, we are just a midget animal. Look at me! I'm only about 20inches long, the size of a domestic cat. Our size helps us to move freely on the grass. Moreover, unlike other big animals, we cannot intimidate others with this small sized body. Yet, no other animals can threaten us because God also gave us special defensive techniques.
Did you notice that our heads are really small? I heard that girls in your world want to have smaller faces, we have them! We have a triangular shaped head which tapers to a rounded, ball-shaped nose pad. And there are small rounded ears covered with hair. How cute! Those white stripes on our nose, head made us look cuter. Unlike those cute nose and ears, we use mouth to make noisy sound to warn the attackers, or show its feeling. We have short necks, which is really difficult for you to distinguish it from our body. Probably it's because we have bushy and shaggy fur. Our black and white colors of pelage make us easily identifiable which gave us fame and a little fear. Because of our unnatural colors for animals, it works as one of our defensive techniques. When we go out to the field, others get frightened by our colors and will not come closer to us.
With those strong defensive techniques, we don't have to run away from other bigger, stronger creatures. God knew this point really well, and God created our legs that are just fit for “walking”. Our short front legs and our slightly longer back legs are good for digging. God created our feet with a detailed plan. Think, if we have evolved from something, then we wouldn't have those nice little pads on our feet. I don't even want to imagine it!
What do you think the other protective technique is? Oh, this is too obvious. It's our odor! This is the most interesting feature. Have you ever seen the substance? The substances are actually an oily liquid not gas. I’m bit bashful to say that we emit this substance by a scent gland that is located near the base of our tails. Ha, look at that skunk! He is stomping his front feet and raise his tail in full bloom and running toward the man and blasting liquid with a mist! What a poor man! That man could detect the odor up to a mile away and for several days later! We are dangerous to you! Be careful!!
We are omnivores. We eat almost everything. I know we look dull and tardy, but we can catch mice, snakes, toads and other small animals that we come across. Do not misunderstand that we are a violent animal, we are gentle!
Now you see how amazingly we were created you might want to have one of our features to protect yourself from bullying people? It will be extremely ridiculous if you have them. You know that those cannot be developed through time goes, so it will be very imbecilic to say that we were evolved. Every part of our body is telling you that we were created by God. All those defensive strategies, well-organized lifestyles show God’s glory. God thinks about all the details for small animals like us and gave us those strategies to protect ourselves. God’s mind at work is shown to you through our greatly created design!
Kangaroo Essay
Seung Jong
Hello everyone! Today, I want to introduce myself to you, and I want to show God’s glory through my body structure. I am a marvelous mammal created by the one and only Creator. I have a stupendous body structure with a robust tail and leg that allows me to hop huge distances. Humans often call us a “Kangaroo.” There are multitudinous kinds of kangaroos, and I am one of the most standard group called the “Grey Kangaroo.”
We have very extraordinary habits and behavior. One of my most enjoyable habits is kick-boxing. Humans do this fun sport game in beating others up just to get a piece of yellow-shining belt. However, most of the time, we do this for fun. Sometimes two strong boys do this game to get one pretty girl, and that’s how my dad got my mom. In the other case it is when our captain dies, many adult dads fight for that position. In this situation, the game might be cruel. Sometimes we can see one of the fighter’s stomach ripped by the other fighter’s sharp claws. We also have a fascinating mob. Usually we have one captain in one mob. Our superintendent is very old now. He is nineteen years old. Even though he is that old, he still remains the strongest male in our mob.
We are the only large animals that move by hopping. God designed our feet flat and large, and our legs athletic. So we cannot move backwards but we can hop very fast. I am the fastest hopper in our class. I can hop at the speed of 52km/h. I race with my dad every day. Whew! I lost again today. My dad can hop 70km/h. He is really fast.
It is dinner time now. I love to eat grass. We mostly eat plant matter and we don’t need much water. Our digestion is a bit exceptional too. We chew and regurgitate the food like cows. After eating, we will go out to seek for food. Few of us are active in the day, most of us will rest in the shade in the day.
Our most amazing part is the Joey. Female kangaroos have a pouch in which their young live, drink milk, and develop until they are big enough to face the world. We are born only 31 to 36days after gestation. When the Joey is born, it is much like a pink hairless tiny worm. Only the front legs are developed. This helps him to climb up to the pouch, and attach himself to the one of the four teats to drink milk.
We are so amazing that this must have been designed by our Creator, not random evolution. There is one more amazing fact called delayed pregnancy. The new kangaroo Joey will not be developed until the first baby leaves the pouch. The pregnancy delays by itself!
The wonderful features that I’ve been talked about, my strong legs, the way we eat and how our Joeys are born, couldn’t have happened by evolution! I am created by one Creator – God!
God’s Backbiter
Nuno Atehortua Castro Fok
The architecture and the alliance of the wolves shows the clever and awesome mind of our all knowing God also, that the design of the us shows that God made us not evolution.. I am the son of the leader of this clan and I can prove Evolution wrong by showing Gods glory through the abilities of my clan or shall I say my kind. My dad’s team is called the A-team. My dad and his team's job is to catch the pray. We can run really fast, By the way my name is Jack. People think that my kind are slow but actually we may run up to 35 miles per hour, for a short distance only if we are in a hurry. Did you know that we are able to travel 50 miles or more walking in search of piquant food each day? We can walk on and on without getting tried or empty our energy fuel, even when we are trying to find our mate we can go over one hundred miles just to find one. Do you know how we do that? Well I'll just tell you its because we have long legs and our body is perfectly balanced with our big feet. We are made to move from place to place. Thank God for that!!!! Don't mistake us for one of those killer whales (aquatic wolf). They swim in the sea or ocean. Real wolves run on land after those juicy, massive, fat moose!!! It may think it has a chance to escape our wrath. He will not escape us, for our muscles are stronger the those feeble minded humans. I have 42 teeth able to slash open a piece of meat from its neck. We can even break it's bones. We can bite up to 1,000 to 1,500 pounds of pressure per square inch.
My dad's pack is so intelligent that they are able the make a strategy to bring down the prey. It starts with the leader running after the moose, when the leader gets tired, there would be another wolf close by and when the moose passes that wolf that wolf will start chasing the moose. It keeps going the same until it gets to the last one, then the leader will come in front of the moose and take it down. The thing that I don't understand is, why do evolution scientists think that we evolved from animals or that no existing God created us, how is that possible? We are able to create strategies to bring down our preys. How did we get ears able to become aware of almost everything. We have amazing fur. In winter it turns darker around the neck, and we have long stiff hair called the “ guard hairs”, and under the long hairs we have small hairs that keep us warm in the winter and it grows thick, but when it is summer we shed our fur. We communicate with our fur by making it stand up or flat. Don't you think that we are awesome? If you say no Ill come after you.! Did you know that we are able to live up to 13 years in the wild? Sometimes 6 to 8 years or after we are born. In captivity we are able to live up to 20 years, because in captivity we get medicine when we are sick and have food easily given to us. When we go out for food we have to see what we are hunting, because if we are hunting a buffalo we would need a lot of wolves ,so we need to check what we are hunting. You may think that we are very violent but we only get violent when we have to. Our territory can go as far as 100 square kilometers to 1,000 square kilometers. For your advice that is for a whole pack. The Alpha male and female are my parents , the alpha wolf is the highest in rank, the leader of the pack like a king. The alpha is the first one to eat and to mate and to do everything else. The alpha female is the queen but the thing is that the alpha male is the one who mates with anyone he wants so there is a the different queen each time but right now me and my mom are with the alpha male.
So do you still think that God didn't create us? I just gave you tons of information on us and if you still think that evolution is right , Ill see you pretty soon,Muuhaaaaaaa. Just messing around with you. God made us so that we may prove evolution wrong. The only way that my brilliant mind and my design could be made, is by an Almighty-God not by the big bang theory . My teeth are able to rip out my enemy's neck . I can run so fast that no other dog can catch up to. No fluke could have made us only a God with talent. This just proves that the design of the wolf shows God made it not evolution.
God’s Own Spring
Zac Kerby
So, you think you’ve got us all figured out do you? You think that we can all be explained by some form of scientific theory? Well, perhaps when I’m done with you, you’ll have a bit more of an accurate description of us. Who are we? Why, we’re Servals. What’s that you say? We evolved from other animals?! Ha! Next you’ll be saying humans evolved from monkeys! How could an animal like me, who relies so much on the things my Father gave to me, evolve from something entirely different? Here’s an idea! How about you watch me have my yearly cycle eh? Good! In that case sit down, make yourself comfortable, and watch closely.
Look at those three little insignificant, flimsy mice. My youngsters are chasing them around the round-mouthed cavern we’ve been living in the past couple of months. Ouch! That’s got to hurt in a terminal kind of way! Well, it looks like my little kiddies have advanced to the independent stage of life. Excellent! This is the part where the father leaves the den. Goodbye unforgiving, remorseless housewife!!! Don’t stare at me like that; it’s natural for a father to leave their children and their wife, anyway. Off I go. I’m free once again! All by my sweet, autonomous, little self again!
It has finally come to the time where I mark some territory; my favourite part. Ah, there’s some fertile, soft, stream filled land over to the eastern region. Let’s get marking shall we? Right, first step; filling mouth with saliva. Oh dog meat! Some other feline has already marked some of this region. Where is he? I’ll scare the living daylights out of his long turtle neck. Ah, there he is. Right, let’s see; growling, snarling, spitting. Ha! Take that, you irrelevant, territory beggar. Now that I have my five square kilometres of land, I’ll look for some lunch. Oh! Rabbit! Come here you little ball of enchanting fur. He’s zipped down a hole. No problem! I’ll just bend back my slightly longer back legs, and throw myself five meters into the air! Crash! His burrow’s decimated, and he’s died of fright. How disappointing! I was hoping to have some fun with him before consuming his mass. Oh well. Are you wondering how I can do this? It’s because my back legs are slightly longer than most cats. Well, that was a nice snack; time to get an authentic meal. There’s a group of ducks flying up ahead. One of those would do nicely. Up the tree we zoom! Three, two, one, jump! Got one! Now do you understand how cool it is that God gave me the ability to do something like that, rather than having it evolve over time? If it had evolved, I would have died years ago from lack of food, because I couldn’t jump high enough! Over eighty percent of my food is taken from underground or the sky you know. Hmm… winter’s coming again. I guess I’d better hit the sack.
It’s dawn again already? Please, five more minutes. Why’s it so freezing out here? Ah! Snow! It’s everywhere! I’m going to have to live off carrion soon. Despicable! This is the part of my yearly cycle I’d rather not show in great detail. It’s rather boring to be straightforward. Shall we move on?
Well, winter’s come and gone. Life’s back to the original, solitary routine. Oh, Crocodile breathe! It’s mating season again. (Sigh) Back we go to the mating grounds. Please pray for my safety!
Well, that’s the important parts of my yearly cycle. Do you have a slightly better view of me now? Good! So now you have a choice. Are you going to continue to use the ‘theory’ of evolution as your protective shield? Or are you going to look into what we ‘really’ are. If you picked the latter of the two, then try looking in the Bible. It’s got ALL the answers!
God’s Giant Cats
By: Micah Lam
Look at my stripes… they alone can show God’s glory. He designed me for stealth; everything is made for hunting, my tail, my paws, my bones, right up the pads on my feet. They were all wonderfully designed. You people think that you are better than us. Well why don’t you put down your metal boom sticks and face us on our own turf by our conditions. Who’s gloating now?
That wasn’t enough for you? Alright try and stay still for a whole day. Can you do it? And still burst out in full speed to grab a fleeing prey? I do not think so. Not many animals can do that you know. We are unique in our own way like everyone else. How can we evolve from the same one cell? We wouldn’t survive for very long.
Take a look at my claws; they are curved in. Do you know why? When I am chasing my prey, once I get hold of his flank there is no escape, thanks to these wonderful claws. They can also retract into my paws.
Come over and behold my extremely versatile spine; see my powerful limbs, I can drag down prey pretty quickly. My hind legs are longer than my front ones. There is a reason for this: jumping. In a single leap I could cover 10m (30 feet). I am also built for stealth. See these majestic stripes? They help me blend in with the tall grasses. I can wait for hours for a prey to come. My muscles are built not to cramp. Then in a flash, I can jump out and wrestle an unsuspecting victim to the ground. I can run too, but only in short bursts of about 30 seconds. That’s why I am thankful to my Creator for such a useful body. My coat not only provides me with camouflage, it also doubles as a winter coat.
We tigers are seldom social. Most of us mark off our own territories and stay nearby for our whole lives. We will guard our land aggressively. The only time another tiger comes in is during the mating season. During that time, we fight a lot for a female. These fights are rarely to the death. Sometimes the bored female walks off to find another mate. The one who backs down first is the loser. When each of us claims a mate, the reproduction process begins. After a gestation period of about 100 days, a litter is born. The female tiger raises the cubs until they can look out for themselves. Then, each of us goes our own way. We like to be alone and have our very own territories.
We tigers have been built perfectly; we function just the way we were supposed to. What if I couldn’t stay still without cramping up? How will I able to use stealth to catch my prey? Suppose my legs were short and slow like a lizard. I wouldn’t be able to jump or run after my natural food. If I was a fluke then a billion things could have gone wrong. If I still somehow survived, I would be one of a few kinds of animals. I am sure that all the species alive today were created, not products of a random but somehow perfect 1 in gazillion chance multiplied by all the species in the world. I am a veteran of nature; I know its secrets, things that you did not yet discover. If you dare delve deeper, I’m positive that you will find evidence of a Creator. There are thousands of us each with proof. I hope that you have seen my uniqueness. Nothing that works so well can be forged from a cosmic accident. Try throwing some cells together. Does an organism emerge that hunts, eats, reproduces, and lives on its own? The only origin that can explain life is a Creator. I have told my story, how about you take notice of the others; they can tell their tale too.
Polar Bears
Briana Henderson
Isn’t it stunning how as a polar bear, God’s glory is evident in the unique and careful design of my body? The unique features of my body help me to survive in my Arctic home. I was carefully thought about and planned by the great Creator. Unlike you I am equipped with everything necessary to survive in my Arctic home. How long would you survive in my domicile without all your inventions? You had to create things to survive here, however I was given them from the beginning. God gave me what I need free of charge!
There is no accident in the fact that I have black skin, white fur, eyes with a protective membrane, and an acute sense of smell. These were all designed specifically for me, and I love it! When I’m pondering among the ice in temperatures well below freezing, I’m perfectly comfortable and don’t sense the chill that you would feel. What about my eyes? Could you gaze across the white snow and not be blinded by the glaring sunlight? Unlike me you don’t have a protective membrane to shield your eyes from the ultra-violet light. Do you even need convincing to see how amazing we polar bears are? Surely just by glancing at me as I go hunting you can undeniably see that I’m the largest land carnivore there is. God made me nonpareil and equipped me with all the essentials that I need to survive in my Arctic home. It makes me feel so treasured to know that God thought carefully about all my needs. I adore living in the vast Arctic, it’s so beautiful. Watch me as I head out hunting, look at my big paws which help me distribute my weight over a large area, isn’t it cool how because of them I can wander around on thin ice without it collapsing beneath me? Look! There’s an air hole, I’m going to linger here and wait for a seal to surface, I have extraordinary patience, I could wait here indefinitely. I’m so hungry… Look! A seal just surfaced! Gaze upon me in wonder as I grab the unaware seal, see how I don’t skid on the ice? That’s because God created my paws with papillae on them so I can get a firm grasp and not go skidding across the perilous ice while in pursuit of my prey, God sure knew what He was doing when He designed me.
You may contemplate how I know where I am and where I need to go; well that is a wonder in itself. Scientists examine us and try to discover the key to our amazing navigational system, however the answer to that is simple; God supplied us with it. If you came to my home in the Arctic would you know where you were and where you needed to go without a map or directions? You were designed to live successfully in your home and I was designed so that I would be able to reside in the Arctic.
I travel alone, since it’s difficult in such a treacherous environment to look out for others and provide for them too, therefore I travel by myself. As I wander along the ice, the whole world seems to be laid out in front of me. If I come across any other polar bear I tend to change course, I’d rather not fight anyone. God knew the Arctic is a tough area to dwell in and He knew we polar bears would need to live by ourselves in order to prevail.
Regardless of what others may think, I was designed by God Almighty who thought respectively about what all my needs would be and made sure that my needs were all met. I am a mighty and powerful predator, however that is only so because my Creator thought it right to make me that way, all the special features of my body show the power of God and show what an amazing mind He has; He made sure I had everything I needed to flourish in my home. There is no doubt that the only reason I exist is to show God’s glory
Top of the World
Jedidiah Hutt
Yes siree! We big horns are at the top of the world. Today Billy the big horn sheep will talk about our super staggering body, but I need to tell you he will talk only about our legs, hooves, and horns. Also he will disprove the lies of evolution that are polluting our world today. I hope you will be interested and that you will listen attentively. Thank you.
Hi, this is Billy, the big horn sheep, and I am on BTV News LIVE .(Big horn sheep TV news live) Listen carefully to what I am about to say to you, so stay tuned, and we will be back after this break (It won't be too long you know)!!
We are back! Now to you Billy. Thanks nephew Milly the mountain goat! Now let's start with my hooves. Hope that's okay with you. Now, my hooves are very colossal, they can stay put on pointy rocks!! Now this is because I have a soft part in between my hoof. My front hooves are greater in size than my back ones. How can you humans believe the lies of evolution? It said we evolved, if we did not have hooves that had a soft part in between, and that our hooves were different sizes we would be falling off high mountains!!! Then we would be wiped off the face of the earth, or should I say falling off the face of the earth. God created our spectacular hooves, it was not a random fluke. I hope the you will agree with me when I am done.
OK lets talk about my legs now. My legs can jump very high and far. I can jump very high and far even though I weigh 300 pounds. Imagine if you were 300 pounds, how far could you jump? So how can you say that this was all a big accident.
Now, to my prodigious horns. My horns are very useful. If I did not have them, I would be preyed on night and day! Then I would be hunted down by grizzly bears and other predators in the mountains where I live. If that were the case, we would be extinct. God really didn't want that to happen. God created us and there's nothing else to it! I am really glad that God did create us. If we did not have horns we would no be able to choose a mate because we could not fight. Our horns are hard to carry around the weigh as much as are whole skeleton! Now look at out super-staggering colossal horns, our frolicking legs, and our immoveable hooves, that can be anchored even on a pointy rock!! How can you humans believe that all this came from a big bang? We can jump from rock to rock and we weigh 300 pounds. I bet that you could not do that even though that you might only weigh 100 to 200 pounds. All this while we have been talking about our distinctively designed body that our extraordinary designer God Almighty made. I am not a random explosion's byproduct! I hope you have understood that through what I have been saying(hope it did not come in the right ear and slip out the left) . Thanks for watching BTV News Live. See ya later. Turn off the camera will ya Milly?
Cats
Sarah Lam
You can see, when you look at me, that I wasn’t created by random chance. We cats can hear high frequency sounds unlike humans. Did you know that we can hear five times better than humans? If we couldn’t hear that well, we wouldn’t be able to catch our prey, and we wouldn’t be alive now. God, our Creator and Designer, fabricated us so we can live, not by chance. Can humans catch and kill those tiny and quick mice with their own hands, without those weapons and snares? God was very smart when He designed us!
I. Body
A. Whiskers
We have something called whiskers on the side of our heads. They help us measure if something is the right size for us to fit in. I spot a nice mouse with my keen eyes. He’s running away from me, but I can catch up. He ran into a very small, empty, wet bucket. Observe me as I measure the opening of this bucket with my sensitive whiskers. I caught my run-a-way meal. The reason why I can fit through something as small as my head is because my clavicle bone doesn’t connect to other bones, but its buried in the muscles of my shoulders.
B. Tail
I want to climb a park tree and view the streets of rushing people. I need to cross this road. I use my muscles and speed across the street, barely missing a car I slipped but I didn’t fall. I used my tail to keep balance. I made it to the city park. Examine how I climb up this tree, keeping my balance with my tail.
C. Ears
What’s that sound that I hear? It must be a mouse scurrying in the grass and leaves. I’m going to use my ears to hear high frequency noises. This great tool not only helps me get my food, but it helps me hear danger and harmful things.
D. Eyes
In the dark, I need to see. I just turned into a dark, creepy alley. Though it’s not dark to me. God gave me these extraordinary eyes so I can see in the dark and my eyes can take in less light than humans and can see the same! Our eyes cannot only see...but they have nerve cells in our eyes that transfer sounds that ears can’t catch!
E. Tongue
As you know, we don’t usually take showers. This may seem funny to you, but I use my tongue to clean myself! You see, my tongue is very special. It has little tiny things like fingernails on it. I use it just like a comb to groom myself! Unfortunately, after a while, all the hair that I groomed will come up our throats and we’ll choke it out of our mouth.
II. Social Behavior
A. Kittens
Usually it starts with two male cats fighting for one girl cat. Finally one of the guys wins. Their kittens are not as good at seeing. We start seeing from seven to ten days. We are born deaf and blind. My mother’s milk is important to us kittens.
The milk helps us grow properly and protects us from contagious diseases. As we get more coordinated, our mother helps us learn to hunt and groom.
III. How it disproves evolution and shows God’s glory
Do you really believe that a cat like me could evolve from another animal? For example, God gave us many extra vertebrae. These extra vertebrae give us flexibility to squeeze in things. God made ears because He knew that we need something called amino acid taurine. Mice have it, and God gave us ears to hear the high frequency that a mouse makes. Without amino acid taurine, we’ll go blind. We show God’s glory!
How wonderful it is that God, our Creator, thought very carefully on how to design us cats. He gave us some very useful abilities so we can live. Our very special ears help us in many cool ways. Humans may want to keep us because they think we’re cute and pathetic. They really don’t know we’re hard core creatures. We don’t die off easily. I thank God that he made us cats!!
God’s Aquatic Wolves
James Kerby
When you think of an Orca like me, you probably think of a giant, evil shark that patrols the water and attacks everything in sight. This point of view has some merit; we are powerful, to the point of being referred to as the “wolves of the sea!” However, we are unique creations of God and are not evil in any sense. My amazing species travels at incredible underwater speeds, can live up to nearly a century old and has a culture unmatched by any other kind of marine wildlife. You haven’t even heard of our most impressive features yet; let me tell you more!
Have you had a good look at me yet? I’m as long as one of your three story buildings and as heavy as four… I think you call them cars. My skin colour helps to camouflage me so I can sneak up on my lunch.
Our pod is just setting out to hunt for our nourishment; we eat a lot more than you humans do! You see those three orcas over there? Observe how they’re using their fins to make waves and wash seals off rocks into the ocean. I myself prefer to dive onto an icy slab and cruise across the freezing surface, catching penguins as I go. I possess 40-56 teeth; 7.6cm long which I use to chew and consume my food.
The pod I’m a part of has 28 of us in it, and we’re all related! I have two daughters and a son; I still remember the day they were born like it was yesterday. Each of them weighed nearly 180kg! As soon as they came into the world, they instantly swam to the surface for their first breath of fresh air. It’s amazing how they knew exactly what to do as soon as they were born.
I’m 35 years old, so half my life is over already! We do live longer than most aquatic creatures though. My grandma is still a part of our pod and she’s 85 years old! I hope she didn’t hear that… our hearing is better than even a bats; over 125,000 Hertz!
We mature around the age of 12-16, and that’s when we pick a mate; quite a bit younger than your kind! Actually, my son is turning 13 in a few weeks… I better keep my eye on him… If 12-16 years seems young, then you’ll be amazed to know that the female orcas mature between 6-10 years of age!
You may think our lives seem kind of boring, but on the contrary, we know how to have fun! Come and check this out, my friend is bobbing for penguins. Its heaps of fun! We also have competitions to see how many seagulls we can catch, and even races. I myself won a few years ago; got to 55kph! Our brains are the second largest in the entire ocean, so don’t think you can deceive us when you’re out fishing; we know all the tricks in the book!
You have many languages, am I right? Well, we have languages too! Each of our pods has its own dialect, and we teach them to our children. This way, we can determine who’s with us and who shouldn’t be, but we never attack each other unless it’s absolutely necessary.
Convinced yet? Of what you ask? I mean, are you convinced that I am a creation of the Most High God! It’s obvious to me; just look at all my amazing features! We orcas are very proud of who we are. I’m big enough to admit that there’s NO way we could’ve been created by chance. Just look at me, I can take on blue whales! Bet you can’t do that! Although, there are many abilities God gave you that he didn’t give me; treasure them! I thank my Creator for my frightening power, high intellect and good looks. Don’t forget what I’ve said to you today. We’re not giant evil sharks, we’re friendly groups with families; similar to yourselves. So tell me, who made YOU?
