Irreducible Complexity.
#64
RE: Irreducible Complexity.
Guys, can I say that there are many interesting points being raised. 'Not omnipotent' and 'lazy'- terms attributed to a possible God are meaningless to me and as silly as saying 'can God make 2 add 2 to equal 5?' If a God is responsible for the laws of physics, mathematics, life, a human eye, all things which I believe infer a designer, then I trust this designer knew what He/She was doing. Many of the objections to the structure of the eye have been explained and we can see that there are good reasons for the wiring etc beng the way it is. There are probably hundreds of physical and biochemical factors that make the human eye just right for our needs on this planet. If we lived under water we would no doubt have a different eye. I found a web site by an 'expert' and emailed him yesterday. He sent me a reply and had this to say about the lens causing images to be inverted:

''The eye lens focuses an upside down image on the retina.
It is an efficient optical design that allows considerable optical correction to enable us the see with high resolution.
With the flexible brain that we have it can adapt to correct or inverted images as taught.
Since there is image processing going on from the eye to the brain, it can be packaged in many different ways.
That is not as important as the rapid image processing that takes place in the brain—this is what really enables us to see.
Our eyes are helpless without a good brain---everything has to play together-àdesignàdesigner.

Note the limited design themes of all eyes-- indicating a designer---not random evolution.

There are only about 8 or 9 design themes, but 1000’s of applications.'

He seems to know everything there is to know about all types of eyes. I am also waiting on some more information from someone else regarding the lens.

I have some info on the Esophagus problem noted earlier and will post shortly.
