Huh? What's that got to do with anything? Look here. All life forms are commanded by a single simple law: "Thou shalt reproduce your gentic code." This command could have arisen by the laws of chemistry as much as by the laws of God.

The complexity of the human eye is simply a manifestation of this law. In order to survive and reproduce; humans, other primates, other mammals, fish, reptiles, and birds all have a one up if they have eyes to tell them that a predator is bearing down on them, eyes to find food with, eyes to find partners in the task of preserving their DNA with. The better your eyes, the better you out-competed every other mammal on the block. Bingo! You win! The prize is that you get to survive to sexual maturity, find a mate, and pass on your amazing vision to your progeny who then have that same advantage.

Consider that this has been going on for far longer than 6,000 years, and, its no great wonder that eyes function as they do or that the bannana plant in NATURE has evolved to be a tasty treat whose seeds get dispersed in the poo of those who eat bannana's. We think we got the last laugh on the bannana; actually, it is the bannana which got the last laugh on us. By surrounding its seeds with yummy fruit, it gets us to eat it and do the work of seed dispersal for it. So actually, the human being was created as a clever devise that helps propagate bannana's. Any further questions?
