Shock Horror!
Purple Emperor larvae resent each other's presence almost as much as adult males, so I was amazed to find two hibernating next to each other in Safernoc (ancient spelling of Savernake) today. Not the greatest of photos but it was too windy for photography -
Here's a wider view -
I was also surprised to find one hibernating a fair way along a dead branch, only the second time I've found one hibernating off a live branch (out of about 120 wild hibernating larvae) -
And here's a nice bicoloured larva, indicating just how chameleon-like they can be -

DO CHILDREN INHERIT RIGHTEOUSNESS? BY STEVE FINNELL
Do children of Christian parents inherit their parents righteousness? Are they deemed righteous when they reach the age of accountability? Are they born again Christians at birth? Do they inherit the righteousness of their parents and are they automatically added to the body of Christ? Do they inherit the forgiveness of all the sins the may commit? The answers are: no, no, no, no, and no. Those are absurd questions.
Do children of Christian parents inherit Adam's sin? Do they inherit a sinful nature? Of course not, that would be absurd, illogical, and Scripturally incorrect. How can babies inherit sin from parents who have had their sins washed away by the shed blood of Jesus Christ? How can babies inherit a sinful nature from Christian parents who have been forgiven by God and have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit?
Not only do babies from Christians not inherit Adam's sin, neither do babies from unbelievers inherit Adam's sin.
Ezekiel 18:20 "The soul that sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteous of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.(NKJV)
Romans 5:12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned---(NKJV)
Death spread to all men because all have sinned.
Genesis 3:1-24.......22 The the Lord God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever" 23 therefore the Lord God sent him out of the garden of Eden to till the ground from which he was taken 24 So He drove out the man; and He placed cherubim at the east gate of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.(NKJV)
All men inherit the consequences of Adam's sin, that is all men are denied access to the tree of life. All men will die physically as the result of Adam's sin.
All men suffer the consequences of Adam's sin, but not his guilt.
No person has nor will they inherits the guilt of Adam's sin.
Men do not inherit sin from Adam. No man has inherited guilt from parents, nor from anyone else.
Men fall short of God's glory because all men have sinned, not because Adam sinned. (Romans 3:23)
