THE MIRACLE OF THE
BLOOD AND HEART

Close Pursuit
Inside the body there is a system that in terms of complex-
ity, is little different from the social life among human beings.
The only difference is that the starring role in the internal sys-
tem is played by cells.
Nonetheless, we can see extraordinary resemblances in
terms of the methods employed, the tactics implemented, and
the precautions taken. Like conscious human beings, the cells
possess similar abilities to defend themselves, behave intelli-
gently and take precautions. One of the most important exam-
ples of this takes place, again, among the defense cells.
Some germs know how to protect themselves against the
lymphocytes ready to attack them inside the body. They install
themselves on or inside a cell in the body and effectively dis-
appear. The bacterium that causes tuberculosis, for example, is
particularly cunning, installing itself inside the macrophage
that comes to destroy it.
There are manifestations of an infinite intelligence in all
the systems created by God. The way that a single-celled
microorganism is aware of the dangers awaiting it in the
human immune system and applies a method requiring a con-
scious strategy are just two of these manifestations. What
causes this bacterium to behave in this way? How it is aware
of the coming danger? How has it managed to conceive of
entering inside the macrophages? These questions and hun-
dreds of others remain unanswered by the theory of evolution
and its supporters, who seek to offer accounts based on ran-
dom mutations. It is impossible for the proponents of
evolution to account for the conscious behavior in the
micro-world in terms of chance. This is God's supe-
Harun rior creation.
