Evidence for God from Science

This is apropos of nothing; it is just that I thought this morning I had read a mention of honeycomb in the God and Science forum but I cannot find it now so I will reference this article instead:

Scientists had assumed that the hexagonal lattice of the honeycomb allows bees to store the most honey in a single layer of equal-sized cells, while using the least beeswax to separate them....
Isn't it amazing how smart bees are to have figured this out before humans?

What is the bottom picture? Looks like huge pillars....

It was in this thread

It is amazing.

Totally true! The forces of nature are so brilliant! Think of it, even erosion is miraculous. I mean, without erosion, we wouldn't know what our forefathers looked like!

The Miracle of Erosion

The second and third pictures are both of the Devil's Postpile, central CA. This one is the Giants Causeway, county Antrim, Ireland.
They are large masses of basalt which are believed to have cooled uniformly. As the molten rock solidified, it shrank in volume which caused the cracks which are typically hexagonal patterns.

sweeeet

This thread is based off of nature, as in godless atheism, not sweet.

It's still beautiful. We should just remember who's really behind it--our wonderful, awesome, all perfect, and totally knowing God!

Are you trying to say that the bees copied the designs from a few locations they saw, or are you trying to say that chemistry can be used to explain the pattern of a honeycomb...or both?

I don't think it's the shape which demonstrates design, it's the context in which the shape is found.

When I looked up the pictures a few hours after reading a post, I couldn't remember for what thread I looked up the pictures; yet you expect me to recall after this much time why I posted them ?
I suppose the reasons were:
1) the rock formations are neat
2) patterns don't necessarily have to come from immediate design
I don't have any idea how honeybees ended up with hexagonal cells in honeycombs.

yet you expect me to recall after this much time why I posted them ? Shocked

We are all held to a higher standard here at G&S...except for me...they've given up hope for me.
