If you happen to find an old digital camera, try pulling it to bits.
You might be amazed at the way so many little machines, wires,
computer chips and other things have been integrated together
inside the camera.
All living things have the same characteristics.
Beginning with incredibly complex individual cells, the organism
(whichever one you pick) is built up in layers of complexity.
Each system, separate and intricate, is integrated with all the
other systems - for example, skeleton, heart and lungs, glands,
muscles, organs, veins, arteries, skin and so on.
The diagram of the fish below gives a very simple view of how
God builds fish with an integration of systems.
The skeleton alone is amazing.
It is constructed from the food the fish ingests.
It is strong but flexible.
It grows as the fish grows.
It is self-repairing if damaged.
It gives the muscles an anchor allowing the fish to propel itself
through the water.
Every part, large or small, of a fish, has features of intelligent design,
and points to a Designer who knew what He was doing
when He made them.
