fields of presumed biological science, like extrasensory perception

or the interpretation of man's fossil history, where to the faithful
[evolutionist] anything is possible – and where the ardent believer
[in evolution] is sometimes able to believe several contradictory
things at the same time. 38
The tale of human evolution boils down to nothing but the preju-
diced interpretations of some fossils unearthed by certain people,

who blindly adhere to their theory.

Another subject that remains unanswered by evolutionary the-
ory 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 cen-
ter as an image after a series of processes. With this technical back-
ground, 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 lo-
cated. Thus, the "center of vision" is never touched by light and may
even be the darkest place you have ever known. However, you ob-
serve a luminous, 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
