02 Isn't Evolution Wonderful?

The language in this article is simply amazing.

I am not making this up: a type of butterfly "learned" to mimic the scent of ants, and to imitate the sound a queen makes, to get ants to raise — and give preferential treatment to! — its young.

The mind boggles.

How many billions of generations of butterflies died working on their impressions?

How did they "learn" to exude a fragrance? Can you?

How did they get in there and survive to hear the imperceptible sound a queen makes, much less work on their Rich Little groove? And, having "learned" all that, how did they communicate this acquired characteristic and learning to their offspring?

All that's just for starters.

Amazing.

I do think there is a better explanation:

Psalm 104:24
O Lord, how manifold are your works!
In wisdom have you made them all;
the earth is full of your creatures.
