Only a sadist of unparalelled evil would deliberately create things like this.
So no.

1.Survival of the fittest
that is if you have to survive
you have to work out your own ways and means
God or no God
2. Never underestimate the intelligence of a living thing
no matter how small.
Glory of God ?
Depends upon what do you mean by "God"
A Human form ? No glory there !
A concept, the first cause, the unknown, the unnamed, formless etc., etc., definitely Yes

I've always looked at it like this when you hear about all the horrific things that crawl around and do ghastly things (like those wasps that plant eggs in a paralyzed spider so the larva can eat their way out). Thank goodness God didn't make them big enough to do that to people.
You have to admit though, while they are revolting to look at and behave in a ghastly fashion by our standards, these things have some pretty amazing survival techniques.

He never mentioned christianity to the asker above, but only that you appreciate HIS creation (I'm going to assume "his" is only the most acceptable pronoun for the guy here and he's not assigning a gender to the Divine).
I honestly don't think you could point to an animal that can "prove" intelligent design, just like you couldn't point to one to "prove" evolution. They are both theories and we shouldn't accept either as absolute truth.

We always called the creator a cosmic mad scientist. But we don’t blame him (them actually). Look, there’s nothing wrong with experimentation, it’s like art… some is nice, some is abstract, and some is ugly. Even people when they create monsters they make ‘em very scary. This is actually a sign of intelligence (not glory or perfection but only of intelligence).

Everything is put on this earth for a reason. People get diseases for a reason. I have a story for you. I guy in my sis's class was in a combine accident. He was the class's nice guy and was well loved. He was not expected to live. He was paralyzed. He survived. They built a ramp at the school for him. He was doing better. He walked (walked!) down the isle for his graduation. 2 weeks later he died of a blood clot. That man was an inspiration to the whole community and his short life made a difference. God took him for a reason. It deepened my faith. If I have a disease, that will only deepen my love for my God, the Father Almighty Creator of Heaven and Earth.

I have already seen most of these. 4 in pickle jars. Nice shot of the tongue Isopod. Hard to believe it is related to shrimps, sowbugs and crabs
Try this one. these are almost universal on humans and no population of humans, no matter how remote, lacks them.

Good..
Great scientists like Johannes KEPLER saw God's magnificance and constantly gave praise to God Almighty for his wonderful laws built into nature. He was a creationist.
So was Isaac NEWTON.......and he wrote 1 million words about his LITERAL belief in the Scripture. He was a creationist.
" I have a fundamental belief in the Word of God....I study the Bible daily". - Isaac Newton
The electromagnetic equations of James Clerk Maxwell attest to the Magnificant mathematical inginuity of the Creator.
He was a Creationist.
Louis Pasteur...was a avid Christian and Fundamental Bible believer....
Thousands of other scientists freely admit it was their faith in God and Jesus Christ that led them to great discoveries...
Its only the ignorant who can't figure it out.

Sorry, I'll take the two points, and I could probably give you some cogent thoughts on you query, but I won't go to links.
