           (Figure 1.17). A magnified photograph of the retina. In order to function, the retina
           requires eleven layers and four different types of cell to all be present at the same
           time. If even one type or layer of cell were not present, the entire eye would be-
           come useless. The theory of evolution alleges that species developed their distinct
           features over millions of years by trial and error. But even one single component of
           the eye makes it clear that the theory is simply a farce. This means that the eye
           was created by God.

            of nerves connecting them with the brain, components of the eye such as lens
            and cornea directing light towards them, or the fine capillary vessels feeding
            them, not even several thousand of these cells would allow us to see.
            Moreover, were there no brain to interpret the signals sent by these cells,
            there would be little reason for the presence of these cells at all. This system,
            with all its parts, must have been present from the moment mankind first ap-
            peared on this planet. It's not possible for certain parts of this system to have
            developed at later stages, because in the meantime, man would be unable to
            see. The first human's retina was no different from the retinas of humans living
            today.
