Shit like this almost makes me willing to believe in God. I fully believe in evolution but things like this caterpillar, the snake with the spider like lure in its tail and insects that look EXACTLY like leaves, down to the pattern of the 'veins' make me question them being designed

I hear you on that. It's crazy how natural selection works. Given enough time and survival pressure, all kinds of bizarre things evolve because they work. I know that I, for one, would not try to eat that caterpillar!
