very complex mouth and jaw structures for tearing, masticating
                  and sucking. On their body surfaces are structures known as pseu-
                  docels that squirt out fluids at moments of danger. In addition to
                  the advanced antenna in other insects, they also have what's known
                  as a "postantenal" organ, peculiar to this insect alone. Scientists be-

                  lieve it serves to perceive moisture. Air cushions between its hairs
                  are used for breathing in aquatic environments. Some species can
                  emit light from their bodies, and also perform a special mating
                  dance. 123
                       The springtail, which evolutionists describe as primitive, has

                  perfect structures and highly developed organs and mechanisms.
                  Far from being primitive, Rhyniella praecursor is a perfect insect that
                  cannot be distinguished from present-day specimens. Like the oth-
                  er examples cited above and distorted by evolutionists in order to
                  portray them as primitive, this insect emerged not as the result of
                  imaginary coincidences but as the product of creation. In other
                  words, these creatures too were created by Allah, Lord of the heav-

                  ens and Earth and all that lies between.


                       INSECTS ARGUE AGAINST EVOLUTION

                       A major problem for the theory of evolution is that insects
         THE MICROWORLD MIRACLE  is nowhere to be seen. In other words, insects did not emerge by
                  emerged suddenly in the Devonian and Upper Carboniferous peri-
                  ods, in their present-day forms. The primitive ancestor of all insects



                  evolving from a more primitive entity, but emerged around 350 mil-
                  lion years ago in their present-day forms and possessing the same
                  complex organs, and never underwent evolution. Fossils have been
