PROPAGANDA
bone in the middle ear—or damage its structure, and you will no
longer be able to hear anything. In order for you to hear, such dif-
ferent elements as the eardrum, the hammer, anvil, and stirrup
bones, the inner ear membrane, the cochlea, the liquid inside the
cochlea, the tiny hairs that transmit the vibrations from the liquid to
the underlying sensory cells, the sensory cells themselves, the nerve
network running from them to the brain, and the hearing center in
the brain—all of these parts must exist in complete working order.
The system cannot develop "by stages," because the intermediate
stages would serve no purpose.
The claim that an organ as complex as the ear should have been
constructed in stages by an unconscious process dependent solely
on random chance, such
as evolution, is both unsci-
entific and irrational. BBC
must be aware of this im-
possibility, since it fre-
quently repeats that this is
a miracle that is very diffi-
cult to believe, and says:
Not even sound systems with
the very highest technology can
offer us the sound quality we
enjoy when listening to a piece
of music. The flesh and blood
audio system in our ears is flaw-
less. Scientists have still not
fully understood this extraordi-
nary system. Believing that such
perfection could have come
about by chance takes one no
further than believing in fairy
stories.
