                                  THE ARROGANCE OF SATAN

              the music starts. However, the sounds that are the products
              of the technology of the human body are extremely sharp
              and clear.  A human ear never perceives a sound
              accompanied by a hissing sound or with atmospherics as
              does HI-FI; 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 visual or recording apparatus produced by man
              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 fact lies beyond all this.


                  To  Whom Does the Consciousness that
                  Sees and Hears Within the Brain Belong?

                  Who is it that watches an alluring world in its brain,
              listens to symphonies and the twittering of birds, and smells
              the rose?
                  The stimulations coming from the eyes, ears, and nose of
              a human being travel to the brain as electro-chemical nervous
              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 about this subject: Who is it that perceives
              these electro-chemical nervous impulses as images, sounds,
              odours and sensory events in the brain? There is a
              consciousness in the brain that perceives all this without
              feeling any need for eye, ear, and nose. To whom does this
              consciousness belong? There is no doubt that this
              consciousness does not belong to the nerves, the fat layer and
              neurons comprising the brain. This is why Darwinist-
