                   THE LUNGS HAVE THEIR OWN EMERGENCY

                                     DEFENSE UNIT




                  Some cells in the lungs actually spray a natural biocide over
               bacteria and other microbes. This way, microbes and bacteria that
               enter through the respiratory tract and manage to reach the lungs
               alive are killed there.
                  Obviously, it's not possible for lung cells to recognize harmful
               substances, much less know to produce whatever's needed to neu-
               tralize them. Cells are devoid of abilities such as thinking, cogni-
               tion, decision-making, or planning. These are all products of God,
               the One Who created it all in harmony and balance, and regulation
               with the heavens and the Earth. By making just one cell perform
               acts with such consciousness that dumbfounds human beings,
               God displays signs of His infinite knowledge and wisdom.
















                     Cells in the lungs have their own
                 defense system. Immediately identify-
                     ing microbes that enter the body
                    through the respiratory tract, they
                  secrete a substance that neutralizes
                 these microbes. That a tiny cell invisi-
                  ble to the naked eye can distinguish
                    between microbes and other sub-
                stances is a great miracle, because if it
                   makes the wrong decision, it could
                neutralize a substance the body actual-
                                       ly needs.
