not feed them. When she begins laying eggs, the queen becomes so
heavy that she cannot move and needs to be fed by others. The sol-
diers' head has a structure appropriate for defending the nest; their
mouths are more suited to repelling intruders than to eating and there-
fore, they too must be fed by the workers. Also, the larvae are fed for

a while by the workers with food they had digested themselves. This
is very important because, in this way, the workers "seed" the bodies
of the new termites the vital microorganisms they will need to digest
cellulose. And a short while later, as they grow larger, the new termites
become able to digest their own food, thanks to the protozoa that the
workers put into their systems. 24
As you see, the workers are responsible for the care of most of the

other termites. In nourishing their colony, they show a high degree of
self-sacrifice—clear proof that the claims of the theory of evolution are
basically untenable. If the natural world were merely an arena of con-
flict where only the strong survive, the workers would let the other
starve and might even kill them. But termites act totally opposite to
the claims of evolutionists, feeding the whole colony tirelessly, with-

out ceasing and with no hope of reward.

untenable.
