Vision and Evolution (A Critique of Dawkins)

I thought you were a Christian?

I wasn't aware that being Christian gave me any insight into how eyes were created. At most Christianity claims by whom, not how, it was created. Not that any of this even matters to the OP, which I don't recall mentions anything about God, Creation, or Christianity.

Your issue with evolutionary theory appears to be that you are unsatisfied with facts of biology or this world, and prefer some other biology and some other world.

Your problem, not a problem for evolutionary theory.

Most disagreements between people have little to do with facts, and more to do with how they are interpreted. And no, so far I've spent most of our conversations disagreeing with you, not evolution. If anything, I've been defending the theory. I would be content is someone takes what I mentioned in the OP, and develops a better explanation for the evolution of vision that accounts for the rest of the visual system. I would love a theory of evolution that was actually intelligible.
