Atualmente, os botânicos estimam que haja mais de 300 mil espécies de plantas, variando entre licófitas, como os pequenos licopódios; coníferas, como o pinheiro e o poderoso cedro; e angiospermas, como a bela rosa ou o trigo para se fazer pão.

Vejamos uma simples ratoeira. Projetada com uma função específica, a ratoeira é feita apenas de uns poucos componentes básicos.

Por outro lado, … Read More

Em Êxodo 20 está escrito que “em seis dias, fez o SENHOR os céus e a terra, o mar e tudo o que neles há e, ao sétimo dia, descansou”. Se tomarmos a Bíblia ao pé da letra, como verdade literal, então Deus decidiu expandir a criação do Universo ao longo de um período de … Read More
Gênesis 1:1 diz: “No princípio, criou Deus os céus e a terra”. Gênesis 1:2 continua, dizendo: “A terra, porém, estava sem forma e vazia; havia trevas sobre a face do abismo”.

Você já olhou para um trabalho concluído, ou para um projeto do qual participou, e disse: “está feito”?
