Abstract
The book of Genesis teaches that the Lord created all living things according to kinds. We may safely assume that He has given each kind of thing exactly what it needs in order to survive. However, influenced by the constant bombardment of evolutionary ideas and teachings in society, many people tend to think of vertebrates as more highly evolved, and thus more , than so-called "lower" organisms. The Siberian timberman beetle Acanthocinus aedilis teaches us otherwise.
