Transcript
Sea slugs called nudibranchs are born with shells but lose them as they grow up. Why would they give up this protection?
Well, some sea slugs actually eat stinging animals like anemones or jellyfish. And then, instead of digesting the stinging cells, they push them to the surface of their skin. They’re used for defense! Others eat poisonous sponges and become poisonous themselves.
Now it’s difficult to imagine how this could’ve evolve by chance. After all, it would have to work the first time, or you have a . . . well . . . dead slug!
No, these sea slugs were created by God to survive in a fallen world. A reminder of his goodness.
