Philosophy

I wonder how upset Dr. Payne would be if he found this blog entry about his "theory", or should I say opinion about the eye, and how nonsensical I find the whole thing. Dr. Payne’s opinion is that we would do better with a cephalopod eye, the flaws in our eye are too great, and the design in amateurish. The fact that a bundle of nerves penetrates the optic nerve is too much of a problem because it creates a blind spot that is not present in a cephalopod eye. If the design was changed to that of a cephalopod eye the blind spot would be eliminated. I guess I can’t see what Dr. Payne sees, but my eyes work fine, if he feels as though he should complain, I suppose that is his problem. I personally would not like to have a cephalopod eye, could you imagine how they would look on our faces? About that blind spot in the back of our eye; well I guess it must be a problem because all of us walk around running into things because our eyes miss them based on the blind spot. Well actually that is not what Dr. Payne said; he said that the brain must compensate for the blind spot constantly, as if that is an exhausting chore.
The more I think about what Dr. Payne has said the more I realize how amazing God is. According to evolution should we not have the higher more advanced eye of a cephalopod? Evolutionarily speaking aren't cephalopods less evolved then us, and if so shouldn't we have the cephalopod eye if it is, so clearly, more advanced and they in turn should get ours? I have to admit I think I should submit a complaint to God about this, or Dr. Payne should, seeing as how he disapproves of the current design. One thing I keep failing to mention is that Dr. Payne does not believe, or so I have come to believe, that we were created by an "intelligent being". He is more of the opinion that we have evolved in the manner of evolution. So either way he does not make sense. Although I suppose that in him claiming the eye was created by an amateur at least he admits we were created by something, so maybe he will get there eventually.
I think people who refuse to see a creator should stick to that, and not blame the characteristics which they don't like on an ignorant "god" who "doesn't exist”. God isn’t there to complain to or about, He isn’t someone who exists when we have a complaint, he is a relational God and wants to know more than just the complaints. He wants us revel in how he made us, and all the care he put into our design. Things about us may not make sense about us, and you may think that we could be improved but isn’t Gods glory shown in the parts of us that should not work but do because of who God is. When God made the earth and all that inhabited it did he not say “and it was good” after he finished his handiwork? I think God knew what he was doing, for those that don’t I am sure there is some doctor out there who would be more than happy to experiment on your eyes and replace them with that of a cephalopod.
