Butterfly ~ Links

From caterpillar to chemical soup(!) to brilliant flying machine, complete with high tech antennas and in-built GPS… I just LOVE butterflies! Don’t you? They are so delicate and pretty. I haven’t done a butterfly theme yet for my sponsored children, but when I do, I will certainly be checking out these great links, especially after a friend sent me a link to some incredible photos taken under a microscope (scroll down). And all the DNA they will need for these incredible changes ~ including information they need to tell them how to fly, and what they need to match up their microscopic scales to get their unique wing colours and patterns ~ is right there in that tiny caterpillar egg. God didn’t need TIME. He just needed TALENT. Incredible. Amazing. Talent. Butterflies are exquisite masterpieces of God’s incredible design.

DID YOU KNOW:

‘…all the iridescent colours in butterfly wings come about like this, including those which have ornate designs. Think about it—in that caterpillar, before it becomes a butterfly, you already have the highly complex DNA program which ‘tells’ each one of those microscopic scales to line up in exactly the right place… to form the pattern… That sort of programming requires an amazing intelligence.’ Mr Butterflies (creation.com)

Butterflies

Butterfly – FREE article for kids (Paper Gifts for Estefany) giving glory to God as designer; just download and print for your child; also available in French; free printable

The Metamorphosis of a Caterpillar into a Butterfly is Evidence of God’s Creation (answersingenesis) Clearly Miraculous… Clearly Wonderful… Full of Mystery! Just as the pudgy caterpillar is transformed into a beautiful creation, we can be transformed by God’s grace through Jesus Christ; showing the Monarch butterfly life cycle for kids; from scientists who take the Bible seriously; free printable

Monarch Butterfly (creation.com) …deep within the caterpillar’s body are clusters of cells—imaginal discs. These are positioned to grow into wings, jointed legs, and compound eyes… prepares to become a pupa… As it lies there very still, hormones from within the caterpillar’s brain signal… These cause the imaginal discs to burst into action, forming antennae, scaled wings, reproductive organs, and every other body part… Even the muscular system must be reorganized to accommodate the wings. Some muscles are destroyed, some are ‘reconstructed,’ and others are formed brand new; from scientists who take the Bible seriously, with photos showing the complete butterfly life cycle.

Butterfly – God’s Rainbow in Living Colour (answersingenesis) From bright blues and glistening greens to metallic coppers, there is no better place to see God’s palette of colors than in butterflies; from scientists who take the Bible seriously and photos showing butterfly wings under the microscope and the credit given to God as designer.

Glasswing Butterflies (answersingenesis) this butterfly attracts attention because of its unique transparent wings; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

World of Butterflies (creation.com) What is the fascination of butterflies? Do they provide evidence for creation? Let’s enter the captivating world of these beautiful insects and find out; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Beautiful Butterflies (creation.com) The information necessary for [butterfly] behaviour must already be there in the egg, stored in coded form ready for future decoding and use… the species-specific DNA, does not change in the slightest during the transformation (meta-morphosis) of this egg to the caterpillar stage, then through the pupa right up to the imago, the finished butterfly. Not one scrap of new information is added to the DNA during this entire life-cycle; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Butterflies Fly on Designer Wings (creation.com) Butterfly wings are incredibly sophisticated. Their structure (and attachment to the thorax and flight muscles) is very complex, with both rigid and flexible wing struts (veins), tough yet flexible membranes, specially folding rear wings, and sophisticated muscle and nervous systems—and programmed behaviour to enable flight to take place; information from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Metamorphosis (creation.com) The amazing transformation of a caterpillar, via a pupa, into a majestic butterfly is one of the most dramatic processes in the living world. This and similar processes in other insects are called metamorphosis, from the Greek meaning ‘change of form’. The internal organs of the caterpillar dissolve into a seemingly amorphous blob, before reforming as the markedly different innards of a radically different creature—all while the metabolism of life continues in some way! The instructions for every stage of this entire marvellous process all have to be encoded in the ‘program’ contained within the egg of the butterfly; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Christmas Tree Butterflies (creation.com) Many artists struggle to illustrate the stunningly beautiful wings of iridescent butterflies… the iridescence is not due to a pigment. Rather, the dazzling effect is known as structural colour, produced by light reflecting off the wing scales, producing constructive interference in blue light. You have to peer into the tiny nanostructure of the scales themselves to understand how it works. An electron microscope reveals structures “which can only be described as Christmas Trees”; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Mr Butterflies (creation.com) ‘…all the iridescent colours in butterfly wings come about like this, including those which have ornate designs. Think about it—in that caterpillar, before it becomes a butterfly, you already have the highly complex DNA program which ‘tells’ each one of those microscopic scales to line up in exactly the right place… to form the pattern… That sort of programming requires an amazing intelligence.’

Metamorphosis—a symphony of miracles (answersingenesis) With the aid of modern DNA analysis and MRIs, we’ve begun to unravel the secret wonders that make metamorphosis possible. Every choreographed step underscores the wisdom and power of our Creator; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Butterfly Wings (answersingenesis) God’s creation is amazing. Whether we look to the heavens at the massive scale of what he’s made or peer through microscopes to study atoms and molecules, we’re astounded by the complexity and design of his creation; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

God’s Rainbow in Living Colour (answersingenesis) From bright blues and glistening greens to metallic coppers, there is no better place to see God’s palette of colors than in butterflies; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Monarch Butterflies – designed to survive (answersingenesis) God designed the monarch butterfly with special instincts to help it survive in a fallen world; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Monarch Butterfly (answersingenesis) The monarch butterfly is evidence of God’s creation. In one day, God created all kinds of amazing creatures that fly, including birds, bats, and butterflies. Today, one of the most famous butterflies is the monarch; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Why a Butterfly flutters by (creation.com) after filming red admiral butterflies flying in a ‘wind tunnel’, researchers have been surprised by a whole range of complicated wing movements; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Butterfly Wings are Waterproof (icr.org) They are inspiring designs for waterproof clothing and aircraft engines. The more closely scientists copy God’s exquisite designs like butterfly wings, the better our engineering designs become; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Butterflies of the Rainforest (Christiananswers) A butterfly’s life begins with a very tiny egg laid on a leaf. From this develops a larva, the butterfly’s caterpillar stage. Eventually, the larva makes a cocoon or chrysalis. Safe inside, it develops into a pupa. Eventually, a beautiful butterfly is released.. an astounding transformation from a humble, earth bound worm-like creature to a delicate flying wonder; information for kids from a Biblical perspective.

Just like the butterfly, God has a new body for me (Chuck Smith; scroll down) And we think of the little caterpillars, which go through a metamorphosis. Their body is designed for the ground. They have all those little legs, and they go crawling through the fields. And as they get to the highways… I can imagine the little caterpillar thinking to himself, “Oh, it’s rough having all these hot dirty feet, coming out of the field to the highway. Oh, I wish I could fly. This is hot! If I could only fly.” But the poor little caterpillar, his body is not designed to fly. It’s designed only to crawl on the ground… But one day that little caterpillar crawls up the wall of your house, exudes a little glue, sticks himself under your windowsill and spins a chrysalis around himself… after a period of time you’ll see the thing begin to wiggle a lit bit. And you want to keep watching it, because it’ll begin to wiggle more and more, and then get sort of convulsive kind of jerks. Then that chrysalis will pop open and two beautiful golden black wings will emerge, and the tiger-swallow tail butterfly will sit perched on the chrysalis for just a moment, as the wings just seem to expand and then it starts flying… No more hot, dirty feet. It has had a metamorphosis… We, too, the Bible says, are to be changed. We, too, will experience a metamorphosis. I look around and I see the world in which we live. I see the corruption. I see the hurt, the pain… And I say, “God, I’m so tired of hot dirty feet. I wish I could fly.” And one day there’s going to be a metamorphosis…

But I’m hungry now! (answersingenesis) Butterflies and moths ‘evolved’ millions of years before flowering plants, according to evolutionists. But how would they have survived until food ‘evolved’ for them? On the other hand, if God created flowering plants on Day Three of Creation Week as the Bible documents, insects created on Day Five didn’t need to tighten their belts for a few millennia while they waited for breakfast; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Were Butterflies on Noah’s Ark? (answersingenesis) How would they have survived the global Flood if they weren’t on the Ark?; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Butterfly Wings under the microscope (insteading) magnified up to 5000 times. Sadly they do not give credit to God as designer, but read their own descriptions. I am not sure how you can see these intricate designs… and NOT see God’s magnificent artwork.

Butterfly Eggs under the microscope (insteading) incredible photos; how can something so tiny, be soooo beautiful?!

Moths

Moth and Butterfly differences (answersingenesis) Moths and butterflies are a lot alike. But there are some big differences; from scientists who take the Bible seriously

Giant Silk Moths – Butterflies’ unsung rivals (answersingenesis) Butterflies flit from flower to flower in the bright summer sun. At night, another marvel of vibrant color flutters out; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Stronger than Steel (answersingenesis) It is amazing that we can learn so much from the biological design God has created in both spiders and silkworm moths; from scientists who take the Bible seriously.

Goodbye Peppered Moths (creation.com) an evolutionary biologist agrees that the peppered moth story, which was ‘the prize horse in our stable,’ has to be thrown out. He says the realization gave him the same feeling as when he found out that Santa Claus was not real. Regrettably, hundreds of millions of students have once more been indoctrinated with a ‘proof’ of evolution which is riddled with error, fraud and half-truths

Peppered Moth is still a… moth! (icr.org) This little critter ‘earned fame as a key player in a classic evolutionary story in the late 19th century. In England, a population of peppered moths supposedly shifted their coloring from mostly white to mostly black after soot from the industrial revolution darkened their tree-trunk homes. According to the tale, bird predators had a difficult time seeing the now-camouflaged dark moths, so those moths began to thrive. That story helped rescue Darwin’s conception of natural selection from a round of early 20th century criticisms, such as a lack of supporting field evidence… [however, it turns out that scientific evidence shows that the moths did NOT turn into anything else – they were still moths]… The Creator endowed moths with the genetic potential for future generations to generate dark varieties. Peppered moths never illustrated evolution in action. But now, more than ever, they clearly expose genius creativity.’

Reclaiming the Peppered Moths (creation.com) The peppered moth (Biston betularia) is often regarded as one of the icons of evolution. But are they?

An update of the Peppered Moth Fiasco (creation.com) Most people learned about these little moths in school as the ultimate triumph of Darwinism—evolution ‘captured in action’. Creation magazine reported how the Peppered Moth story has fallen apart, with revelations of faked photos and more. So now that much of the dust has settled, what is the latest concerning this sensational debunking?

Evolutionists and the Moth Myth (icr.org) No creationist today questions the phenomena of variation and natural selection; most would not even question speciation. But, there is still no evidence whatever for macroevolution or the introduction of new information into the genetic system of any basic kind of organism, including the famous moth. Evolution has always been nothing but a pagan myth.

DID YOU KNOW?

“… a caterpillar spins a patch of silk onto which to attach itself… by a set of special hooks… becomes the motionless, seemingly lifeless pupa. Inside, a mind-boggling process is taking place… The caterpillar’s organs dissolve into a chemical soup, from which a radically different creature is then constructed… [the] entire process is already ‘written’ on the DNA in the egg from which the caterpillar first hatched.” creation.com

GOD OF WONDERS ~ BE IN AWE OF OUR CREATOR

Butterflies are engineering marvels, and more compelling evidence for a Creator. It is estimated that 18,000 butterfly species live on our planet. Incredibly lightweight, they are magnificently designed with tiny scales and beautiful patterns. Graceful. Amazing aerodynamics. And just think about all the controls inside an airplane needed to fly. All of that is packed inside a tiny fragile butterfly. Using high powered electron microscopes, scientists have discovered that butterfly wings have bio-photonic structures in them that can have no more variation than 0.00004mm. That’s point zero zero, zero zero, four millimetres. Visually stunning and presented by PhD scientists full of awe as they explore our Creator’s handiwork and what it reveals about His character, power, wisdom, majesty and care. The whole documentary is fabulous, but in this short segment, take a two-minute holiday and watch these Bible-believing scientists giving glory to God as they discuss these delicate creatures of the air and the wonder of metamorphosis.
