"The Purposes in
Nature.—Any impartial investigator who examines the
history of the eye and its form in the lower creatures, and sees
how the visual organ was slowly developed, cannot help recognising
that sight was not the first purpose of the eye, but probably only
asserted itself when pure hazard had contributed to bring together
the apparatus. One single example of this kind, and the
“final purposes” fall from our eyes
like scales." -Friedrich Nietzche in "The Dawn of Day"
Interesting quote that Nietzche had answered the Intelligent Design communities question of the complexity of the eye being a proof against Evolution. Or is it just regurgitating of old questions in this debate?
