364 CELL INTELLIGENCE THE CAUSE OF EVOLUTION 



hard must be provided. We do not know how or from 

 what the cells are able to build this horny, callous pro- 

 tection over the skin when necessary, but we know they 

 do it. The evolutionists would make us believe that the 

 callous is caused by the ground or by accidental chance 

 variations, but it certainly is very clear that nothing of 

 the kind has ever happened or can happen. The callous 

 is a scientific production for a purpose, produced at the 

 right time and at the right place. It was not produced 

 until wanted nor was it produced on a place where it was 

 not necessary. 



The chemical knowledge and skill required to produce 

 the callous show conscious intelligence, of a high order. 

 Take the simplest single cell like the foraminifer, which 

 makes for itself a shell of limestone in which it lives. It 

 leads a single independent life in the ocean and also 

 associates in colonies. This animal is sometimes referred 

 to as merely living matter. However, when this little 

 animal discovered the secret of how to cover its naked 

 body with a hard shell, it had the best of those other 

 single cells in the struggle for existence and was able to 

 exist in deeper water and resist the attacks of other cells. 

 It was a great discovery and the chalk cliffs of England 

 stand today as a perpetual monument to their effort and 

 intellect. It required just as much intellect to select the 

 microscopic lime from the water and mix it with the 

 proper ingredients to make a strong shell and then form 

 it into the perfect and proper shape, as it does to mix 

 sand and cement into a mixture for the foundation of a 

 house. Consider again the skill of the cells that can make 

 bone or horns and can cut and destroy bone and horn 

 whenever it is necessary; for instance in the case of a 

 broken bone, the splinters will always be liquified and 

 carried away. Even ivory pegs, if driven into bone, will
