    You can't even stand under it in the rain and being tied to one will result in a slow, painful death. So toxic it's freaky.

    With (no) apologies to the Awake magazine.

    Until I clicked on your link, I thought this was another tribute to the Roman torture stake.

    Definately designed by something with a sick sense of humour. Or could it be Mmmm ? Natures way of ensuring the plants survival. Yeah I'll go for that.

    It deters parasites from the plant and provides s protective layer... so evolution.

    unless god designed a plant to kill other life that seek to eat the plant to survive...... thats a screwy god, he'd probably design...tsunamis too!

    Ahhh, you all know the WT answer:

    Bad things: Satan Dun It!

    Good things: God Dun It!

    (Evolution is Satan's dastardly plan to deceive humans away from God, so that goes in the first category).

    the self designing universe reveals this feed-back loop.

    Tree protects beaches, dunes from erosion. tree repels potential devastaors with poison, beaches flourish, expand, trees flourish, multiply.

    Humans discover use: combat.

    ultimate benefit: we are thinking, talking about it and

    It is there. it exists.

    testimony to a causer.

    I actually would love to see a series similar to the wt "was it designed" articles but with parasites. They so amazing horrible things to creatures of all sorts.

    The universe is autonomous, given extraordinary powers. It thrives on competition (winter world wide weighing coming up). In Nature no holds are barred.

    That seems the way that the creator is creative.

    he subtely planted the evidence of that plant, to see who would win. (the BIG argument)
