Why Do Parasites Exist? | The Creation Podcast: Episode 47

Try to get to the end of this episode without squirming! Almost everything on earth has some kind of parasite living inside of it—including humans. What are parasites, and how do they impact their hosts? Were they part of God's original "very good" creation? Some parasites produce effects terrifying enough to make your skin crawl; but did you know that some of them are harmless—or even beneficial—to their hosts? Host Lauren and biologist Dr. Frank Sherwin talk about these strange organisms—the good, the bad, and the ugly. — Do you have questions about science or Scripture? Post them in the comments and we might answer them in future episodes. Tune in every other Tuesday here on YouTube for new episodes.
