A species of spider that not only eats mosquitos, but seems to be able to detect and favors mosquitos which carry malaria. Thats just too specific to be a coincidence. Why would spiders favor malaria mosquitos? What blind, random mutation would produce that?

There is a God and this is just one example of His work.
For those who believe in evolution i challenge you to read Genesis , funny but same way evolution is said to happen is the same way it is portayed in the Bible in Genesis 1

There is no God.
And on the off chance there is a God, how does that spider prove anything? How do you define "too specific to be a coincidence?" Why don't all spiders favor malaria mosquitos? Why did God create mosquitos and malaria in the first place?
"I don't understand it" does not equal "God did it."

Several hundred people still die unnecessarily from malaria each year all over Africa, including in the east. Let's hope mankind keeps seeing the sense of ensuring everyone sleeps under a mosquito net, which should be freely available.
Don't wait for god; he's not working fast enough to make a difference!

You're focus sing on the one 'coincidence ' that seems remarkable to you. You need to see this in the context of all other living species on Earth, many of which we don't even know about in this detail. What about all the animal borne diseases that are not targeted by a predator? In a world where anything can happen, it is somewhat inevitable. And if it's God, why isn't it having any impact. What's the point? But of course, you weren't really asking anything, were you? You'll ignore any points I've made as irrelevant because no matter what I say, I refuse to accept God. In fact, I'm never going to discuss religion with a religious person ever again because I've just seen the futility of it. I

the same that would have the mosquito female needing blood proteins to enable successful fertilization. sh!t happens, and it is not for us to ponder why, but to live this life as best we can.
as for evolution being a theory, gravity is still a threory too, yet it exists. god is the result of the bible, which is ancient fiction, poorly written too. get over the gullibility people.

There is no god. Evolution tastic. That is what Darwin discovered. I don't believe in God. I believe in science, as science has contradicted everything in the bible. And proved the contradictions. If there is a God, then why stop at malaria?

There is no God.
That spider exists because out of its millions of ancestors, the only ones that survived were the ones that adapted to eating that particular type of mosquito.

I fail to grasp your connection.
Everything else was randomly produced, why not a spider that likes malaria-laced mosquitoes?

It's called a pestilence...
God creates pestilences as punishment to man. He even makes the dust of the earth turn into "lice" without any scientific explanation....that is if your familiar with Moses plagues for Pharaon...
