The field has always been losing energy despite its variations, so it cannot be more than 10,000 years old. We now have simple explanations for the field's origin, history, and present state. In this light, the earth's magnetic field is no longer a mystery; it is a testimony of God's handiwork.
There are about 20,000 different species of bees in the world. Bees live in colonies that contain the queen bee, the worker bee and the drone. The worker bee and the queen bee are both female, but only the queen bee can reproduce.
That said, there are a few bees and wasps that are easy to distinguish, so perhaps you are absolutely right. There are 4000 species of bee in North America and about three times as many species of wasps, but most folks can recognize a honey bee, bumble bee, yellowjacket, or bald-faced hornet.
