The Fibonacci argument is usually presented by those who have a misinformed understanding of how evolution works. They will express that, because evolution is random it should be impossible to find these in nature sequences in nature. However evolution is not random.

Mutations are random but natural selection is quite the opposite.

On this and a thousand other even more perplexing questions (such as the staggering wisdom within every cell), Evolutionists leave themselves no alternative other than to invoke random coincidence.

Creationists see this as just one more indication of God's deliberate and purposeful act of Creation.

It is a surprising fact that the Fibonacci series can be found in the arrangement of leaves on the stem of higher plants. In the great majority of plants with spiral arrangement, the arrangement conforms to Fibonacci numbers. However, there are patterns other than the Fibonacci spiral pattern in the plant kingdom. It is not the only one present and is therefore not a necessary pattern, Plants have simply developed the best solution to meet a need, such as maximising leaf exposure to sunshine. Evolution does not require these patterns to be random, nor are they evidence of design.
