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

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

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, ,
