Technology in the Eye and the Ear

Another subject that remains unanswered by evolutionary theory
is the excellent quality of perception in the eye and the ear.
Before passing on to the subject of the eye, let us briefly answer
the question of how we see. Light rays coming from an object fall op-
positely on the eye's retina. Here, these light rays are transmitted into
electric signals by cells and reach a tiny spot at the back of the brain,
the "center of vision." These electric signals are perceived in this center
as an image after a series of processes. With this technical background,
let us do some thinking.
The brain is insulated from light. That means that its inside is
completely dark, and that no light reaches the place where it is located.
Thus, the "center of vision" is never touched by light and may even be
the darkest place you have ever known. However, you observe a lumi-
nous, bright world in this pitch darkness.
The image formed in the eye is so sharp and distinct that even the

technology of the twentieth century has not been able to attain it. For
instance, look at the book you are reading, your hands with which you
are holding it, and then lift your head and look around you. Have you
ever seen such a sharp and distinct image as this one at any other
place? Even the most developed television screen produced by the
greatest television producer in the world cannot provide such a sharp
image for you. This is a three-dimensional, colored, and extremely
sharp image. For more than 100 years, thousands of engineers have
been trying to achieve this sharpness. Factories, huge premises were
