The Deadliest Animal in the World

RICHARD DAWKINS DUPED AND FOOLED, EVOLUTION DOOMED, FLAWED - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4KXD2zqzBA.
I Peter 5:8
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

You have probably never heard of the last animal you would ever want to meet undefended. This animal, found in the wild only in Madagascar, is called the fossa (pronounced FOO-sa). A typical specimen weighs only about 14 pounds. Its body is about 28 inches long, but its tail is another 28 inches long.

The fossa looks something like a small mountain lion and was originally classified as a member of the cat family. But it also has features and behaviors, including its tenacity in fighting, more similar to the mongoose. This led scientists to reclassify the fossa as a member of the mongoose family. These ferocious creatures live in the forests of Madagascar. Despite its small size, it is said to eat anything with a heartbeat. This powerful creature is known by science to bring down even wild pigs much larger than itself. The local people of Madagascar say it can even bring down oxen. Pound for pound, it is recognized as the deadliest animal in the world. Scientists have also learned that an even larger version of the fossa possibly existed 1,500 years ago when Madagascar was first settled. This fossa weighed as much as 200 pounds and had a body 6 feet long, not counting the tail. It could have brought down any creature it wanted.

While the fossa may be considered the personification of evil, the Bible tells us that the devil is behind all evil and is much more dangerous than any fossa. So we can thank God that His Son, Jesus Christ, has won for us the victory over sin, death and the devil.

Prayer: Lord, I thank You. You have given me Your victory over the devil. Amen.

@slr1238 actually the earth is about 5 BILLION years old (aprox)

[slr1238]

everything here is true except the earth is only 6 thousand years old so there was no earth 1,500 years ago.that is a scientific fact.

Where is the evidence? is this for real? Fossas are NOT the most dangerous animals in the World, in fact ignorant fools like you are. And it's not something to be proud of... before you feel all manly about it.

not that I'm a non believer... But wtf does this animal have to do with the bible. This is all out in left field and the information about this animal is so off.

@mrbratsch Thank you.

wtf?

[KushS96]

fossas are amazingly interested creatures, are DEFINATELY not the most dangerous animal in the world and are vital to a healthy ecosystem. They aren't evil and should be protected and conserved.

more religious nonsense

It is true what Dawkins said: Nobody knows the origin of the first replicating molecule. But that is not proof that there was intelligent design. The burden of proof falls on the creationists, and so far they have given no credible evidence. What Dawkins said is irrefuted. As for evolution, there is evidence all around us. And if you can't learn that, then you are pitifully stupid, and you'll never really understand any science, because practically all natural science involves evolution.
