Evolution versus creation has been beat to death lately, this isn't another debate thread. I wanted to showcase a hugely funny site I found when researching creationists' views. Note that I don't believe this site in any way depicts the beliefs of most creationists. Even the Watchtower's most staunch and intellectually dishonest writers wouldn't agree with this outfit. But from a pure entertainment standpoint, you don't want to miss this gem: http://objective.jesussave.us/eye.html
I've pointed you to their page on the "ridiculous concept of the evolution of the eye", under their "wacky evolutionists" page. (Richard Dawkins should be honored to know that he has his very own page, as he is apparently too wacky to appear on the general page) Note that this is only one of many, many pages you can read and enjoy with friends over a cold beverage.
Here's a taste, captioned "The first eye as postulated by evolutionism. How could it have worked? (Illustration by Peggy Miller) "
You might think this is a little tongue-in-cheek, but no. They are seriously debunking the idea that the eye could ever have been a half-eye, like this. And they make some really good points about it:
- How would this eye be moved in its socket if it wasn't a smooth spherical shape?
- What would stop the seepage of light through the top?
- How would the lens keep from being deformed if it was not held equally on all sides?
- How would the eye jelly have kept from spilling out of the opened bowl of the half-eye?
I think the "eye jelly" one is the most damning to the evolutionary concept, but I'm sure different facts appeal to different people.
When you've finally read all the Chick tracts and get that depressed "can it really be over?" feeling, despair not! JesusSave.Us is here to help!
