The Question of Design - The Flowers and Birds 1

The Food bearing plants -

      

Corn, like Wheat, is one of our most important food sources, a miracle of design!


Flowering plants -

  

The Passion Flower, first identified in Peru by the Spanish as the "Christ Flower", due to its design, medicinal uses and beauty, is now grown all over the world for medicinal uses.  One of thousands of beautiful plant species!  Make this one by mindless accidents!  Does the Grand Designer have a sense of humor to humble man?

The Migrator's - A challenge to mindlessness
 
 

Lets consider migrating animals for a moment.  For example, recent studies in salmon migration have uncovered parts of their amazing and complex mechanisms used in navigation, coming  This included light angle, magnetic compass and smell systems combining into from a very complex micro-sensory system located in their tiny brain.

“These results are consistent with the idea that juvenile salmon imprint on the magnetic signature of their home river, and then seek that same magnetic signature during their spawning migration,” “As the salmon travel that route, ocean currents and other forces might blow them off course. So they would probably need to check their magnetic position several times during this migration to stay on track". (1)

Salmon can swim right back to their original spawning bed, even if it's a hatchery tub!  I have seen Chinook Salmon swim to the very boat ramp where they were discharged, trying to nose up the steps!  How did a compass get into the salmon brain and what would be its' mindless evolutionary stages?

Bird migration and Aerodynamics so perfect man can only copy -


   

Canada Goose and migration routes, form, beauty and confidence. They mate for life. The aeronautical function of the feather is now a model for the most modern propellers and latest Fanjet engines.  The hook and eye construction of feather fibers is an engineering marvel of strength and light weight.  Mindlessness, self-making evolution or is this Intelligence acting on matter?
