The Deception of Evolution


             trying to generate and reproduce sound that is faithful to the original.

             The results of these efforts are sound recorders, high-fidelity systems,
             and systems for sensing sound. Despite all of this technology and the
             thousands of engineers and experts who have been working on this
             endeavor, no sound has yet been obtained that has the same sharp-
             ness and clarity as the sound perceived by the ear. Think of the high-
             est-quality hi-fi systems produced by the largest company in the
             music industry. Even in these devices, when sound is recorded some

             of it is lost; or when you turn on a hi-fi you always hear a hissing
             sound before the music starts. However, the sounds that are the prod-
             ucts of the human body's technology are extremely sharp and clear. A
             human ear never perceives a sound accompanied by a hissing sound
             or with atmospherics as does a hi-fi; rather, it perceives sound exactly
             as it is, sharp and clear. This is the way it has been since the creation of
             man.
                 So far, no man-made visual or recording apparatus has been as

             sensitive and successful in perceiving sensory data as are the eye and
             the ear. However, as far as seeing and hearing are concerned, a far
             greater truth lies beyond all this.

                 The stimulations coming from a person's eyes, ears, and nose
             travel to the brain as electro-chemical nerve impulses. In biology,
             physiology, and biochemistry books, you can find many details about
             how this image forms in the brain. However, you will never come
             across the most important fact: Who perceives these electro-chemical
             nerve impulses as images, sounds, odors, and sensory events in the
