ORCHIDS.
ORCHID BEHAVIOR. By David Cloud.
e following is from CreationMoments.com, November 21, 2025: “ere are between 10,000
and 15,000 species of orchids. While you surely are not familiar with all of them, it sounds
strange to talk about orchid behavior. is huge variety of orchids offers a multitude of different
flower shapes, colors and sizes. Each unique shape, color and size is perfectly suited to the bees,
butterflies, bats, moths, flies and birds that are involved in that orchid's pollination. ose
orchids that use birds as pollinators have no scent. Instead, they offer the brightest of colors,
appealing to the birds' strongest sense. Evolutionists call this ‘co-evolution.’ However, giving it a
name doesn't explain it. How did these orchids know that the bird's strongest sense is sight?
And how were these orchids able to perform genetic recombination on themselves so that they
could develop their bright colors? No, giving something a scientific-sounding
name doesn't make naturalistic claims any more scientific. Or
consider the bee orchid. It offers a flower that looks like a female
bee. e purpose here is to attract male bees to a position that
will load them with pollen. How can it be scientific to suggest that a plant
purposely restructured itself to fool bees into pollinating it? God has
purposely made it impossible to explain the creation without Him. He did
this not simply so that we would see that He is real. His purpose is much
greater. God seeks a personal relationship with you and has made that
possible through the saving work of His Son, Jesus Christ, for us. It is to Christ
that He would ultimately draw our attention. Ref: Batten, Mary, ‘Sex & plants,’
