Description

Creationists and Intelligent Design theorists often argue that the human eye is too complex to have evolved.  Darwin himself asked this question.  However, even Darwin new the answer.  Small steps from a primitive light sensitive cell is all evolution requires.  And the fossil record provides many examples of each intermediate step, without any ‘missing links’.  Further, it turns out that humans don’t even have the best ‘design’ for eyes in the animal kingdom.

Discussion Questions

• What is the argument Creationists make concerning ‘irreducible complexity’?
• How can evolution make such complex things?
• Would you get an ‘eye upgrade’?  What would you want?
