Made in Heaven
by Ray Comfort and Jeffrey Seto
Master Books | October 2012 | ISBN-10: 0890516693 | PDF | 80 pages | 14.2 mb

Science shamelessly steals from God’s creation, yet refuses to give God the glory!
-  How the glow of a cat’s eyes innovates road reflectors
-  The naturally sticky inspirations for Velcro and barbed wire
-  A fly’s ear, the lizard’s foot, the moth’s eye, and other natural examples are inspiring improvements and new technologies in our lives

Engineers and inventors have long examined God’s creation to understand and copy complex, proven mechanics of design in the science known as biomimicry. Much of this inspiration is increasingly drawn from amazing aspects of nature, including insects to plants to man in search of wisdom and insight. We are surrounded daily by scientific advancements that have become everyday items, simply because man is copying from God’s incredible creation, without acknowledging the Creator.
