Ah, that would explain that. Although I’ve heard they were shot, not thrown.
evolution teaches we began as amoebas/cells… lil particles of matter. iw anna know-
how did that lil organism percieve what was out there to sense? touch,taste,smell,sound…
how did it detect soundwaves without anything to detect them with? then develop organs with the capacity to more clearly decipher and distinguish the sounds?
how did it detect there was something to see? with no eyes? then develop something with the ability to see?
mathmatically and logically, wethere your intel desing pro, darwin pro big bang or religous none of it makes sense…
Welcome to the SDMB. You’ll find that you’ll get a better reception around here if you’re a bit more careful with your spelling, grammar etc. As it is, I can’t really understand you.
If you’re having trouble understanding evolution, try talk.origins, especially this FAQ.
The question is meaningless; perception of those things is the sense of touch, taste, smell, etc…
If you’re asking how the organism ‘knew’ there was something there in order to ‘try’ sensing it, then you’re labouring under a rather heavy set of misconceptions about what science considers evolution to actually be - not a conscious process at all.
I’ve always thought that the vertebrate eye is the perfect counter to “intelligent design”. If our eye is such a good example of “intelligent design”, why is it inferior to the octopus eye? For example, the human/vertebrate eye has the retinal blood vessels in front of the retina, while the octopus/cepholapod eye sensibly has them behind the retina, thus avoiding the many problems and design compromises our eyes are subject to. Does this mean the the “intelligent designer” thought cephalopods were more important than humans and other vertebrates?
Heck, never mind the octopus, there is a species of shrimp that has stereoscopic vision in each eye, can see polarized light, and has something like eight different color sensing pigments as opposed to our three.
(I wish I could remember it’s name or at least the name of the nature show I saw it on)
The typical creationist response to this is some kind of blustering about how cephalopods don’t need their retinas protected from UV because they live under water, whereas vertebrates live on land and would go blind if their retinas didn’t have an untidy mess of blood vessels and nerves sprawling over them. Don’t forget that important fact; ‘vertebrates live on land’.
