Seed Dispersal

An important point to be borne
in mind is that it’s impossible for a
plant’s reproductive system to chan-
ge over time. For example, a plant
whose seeds are being carried by
animals and buried in the ground
cannot, over time, become light eno-
ugh to be carried by the wind. Ho-
wever much time passes, be it even
millions of years, a heavy seed like
an apricot pit cannot become light
and develop wing-like structures.
Such a claim can’t be reconciled
with scientific logic, because the
plants and animals, or any other ele-
ments found in nature, do not enga-
ge in such planning. The plant is not
able to bring about the conscious or-
ganization in seeds.
Thinking about these facts, you
can immediately understand that
seeds have had the features they
now possess since they first existed.
This is one of the countless pieces of
evidence that seeds were created in
an instant. There are evident signs of
creation in the structures of seeds
that let them be transported, and
this creation is God's, Who has eter-
nal knowledge.
