Educated Slugs (Part 2 of 2)

What can we learn about the magnificent human brain by looking at the lowly garden slug? Find out on today’s Creation Moments Minute.

How much more simple are a garden slug’s brains than ours? To their surprise, researchers discovered that the slugs’ brains use some of the same chemical methods to learn and store information as do mammals. In other words, the slugs’ brains don’t use a simpler method to learn and remember than do a cat’s or a dog’s brain. Mammal brains and slug brains are based on the same design.

This finding came as a surprise and erases evolutionary distinctions between simpler and supposedly more evolved creatures. It reveals the Creator’s pattern. He used the same design when He equipped the slug’s brain to learn as He used when He made a dog able to learn. Life is evidence of a perfect Creator, not accidental improvements!
