             vices, when sound is recorded, some of it is lost; or notice how when
             you turn on a hi-fi you always hear a slight interference or static even
             before the music starts. However, the sounds that are the products 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
             static as does a music set; 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 video or audio 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.


                 TO WHOM DOES THIS CONSCIOUSNESS THAT SEES
                 AND HEARS WITHIN THE BRAIN BELONG?
                 Who watches an alluring world inside the brain, listens to sym-
             phonies and the twittering of birds, and smells the rose?
                 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 an answer to the most important question: Who perceives these
             electro-chemical nerve impulses as images, sounds, odors, and sen-
             sory events in the brain? There is a consciousness in the brain that
             perceives all this without feeling any need for an eye, an ear, and a
             nose. To whom does this consciousness belong? Of course, it does not
             belong to the nerves, the fat layer, or neurons comprising the brain.
             This is why Darwinist-materialists, who believe that everything is
             composed of matter, cannot answer this question.
                 For this consciousness is the spirit, the soul created by God, ,
