the orchid, would each have been exposed to mutations

that simultaneously extended the length of their proboscis
and nectary. Of course, such mutations would have had on-
ly advantageous effects on these two life forms (and bene-
ficial mutations have never been observed). They would
have to out-multiply other members of their species that had
not undergone mutation, and this supposed process of nat-
ural selection would have to continue completely by

chance, but without error, for millions of years.
To believe that is like believing that a lock and the key
that opens it each came to be independently, but in a man-
ner totally compatible with each other. Yet clearly, reason
requires us to accept that two structures completely com-
patible with one another are both examples of simultaneous
creation. To put it another way, reason requires us to accept
that the orchid and the moth were created in harmony with
each other.

Another example of the flawless harmony among tropi-
cal life forms can be seen in those regions known as flood
forests, found along the shores of the Amazon and its trib-
utaries. When the rain is heaviest, they are flooded, and dur-
ing this period, a marvelous phenomenon takes place. Fish
come to eat the fruits that fall into the water and distribute
the seeds of those fruits of several species of tree.

Clearly, the variety of species in the rain forests are of
