So then it is the octopus eye that is wrong, and the vertebrate eye that is right.
In any case, that the facts are (partially) explained by common descent, but not by special creation of each “kind”, makes the nature of eyes within the animal kingdom evidence for evolution rather than creation.
Sure. I was just saying that maybe the backwards retina thing might not be the best example of evolution being stupid since that particular design may not be that bad,
As far as octopuses and such, how do their eyes compare to our eyes? how quickly can they react to stuff, etc etc?
(If I’m totally wrong on what I said earlier, lemme know. I mean, it’s quite possible that the friend in question was basically totally BSing me. I hadn’t researched the subject myself in all that much detail, so… However, his argument did seem sufficiently plausible to me that at least it doesn’t seem completely nuts.)
