First off, I do believe in evolution.
But I was thinking, Evolution is based on natural selection, the survival of the fittest. Insects are extremely strong, fierce, and capable for their sizes. Why would it just happen that insects are so small? It almost seems as if this situation was set up for the benefit of mammals. If, for example, some insect eating insect was the size of a horse, it would absolutely dominate other animals. Why then, would evolution not have made sure by now that insects get bigger? Ones that could survive on the flesh of other animals atleast.
