wings, thereby introducing a flawless order and symmetry.
In addition, none of the colours on these thin wings mixes with the other,
each being sharply set apart from the other. Actually, these colours are
formed by the amassing of tiny scales clustered one on top of another. Isn't it
a wonder how these small scales that are easily dispersed with your hand's
slightest touch can be arranged on both wings without any mistake in their
disposal so as to produce exactly the same pattern. Even the replacement of
a single scale would destroy the symmetry in the wings and impair their
aesthetics. However, you never see any muddle in the wings of any butterfly
on the earth. They are as neat and elegant as if made by an artist. And they
are indeed made by an Exalted Creator.

The Animal with the Longest Neck: The Giraffe
Giraffes have many amazing characteristics. One of these is that their
neck stands on 7 vertebrae, just like that of all other mammals, even though
it is so long. Another amazing fact about giraffes is that they do not have any
problem pumping blood up to their brain on top of their long neck. A little
thinking would make one notice how difficult it must be to have the blood
pumped so high. But giraffes do not have any problem about this, because
their hearts are equipped with features to pump blood as high as necessary.
This enables them to carry on with their lives effortlessly.
Yet they still face another problem while they drink water. Essentially,
giraffes should have died of high blood pressure every time they bent down
to drink water. However, the perfect system in their necks completely
eliminates this risk. When they bend down, the valves in their neck vessels
are shut down and they prevent excess blood from flowing to the brain.
There is no doubt that the giraffes did not acquire these traits by planning
themselves in accordance with their needs. It is even more implausible to say
that all these vital features were shaped over time through a gradual and
accidental evolutionary process. In order for a giraffe to stay alive, it is vital
for it to have a pumping system to transmit blood to the brain and a valve
