>>11379206>all available evidence supports the notion that the inverted vertebrate retina is inferior to the more logical design of the cephalopods.The author just fucking explained to you how much better the avian eye is than anything else in the animal kingdom, and then tries to sell you this horseshit. You can't have it both ways, retard. Humans (and mammals in general) having worse vision than avians is not evidence against the "inverted" retina.
I forgot one important kicker in my earlier post. Rather, I intentionally withheld it in case some retard like you tried to act up.
What's this? Oh it's the fucking motherfucking god damn RPE. Retinal. Pigmented. Epithelium. Retard.
Even if you deny the oxygen delivery hypothesis (a hypothesis for which you have no reason to deny, your photoreceptors are the most oxygen intensive cells in your fucking motherfucking body), that still doesn't account for the NECESSITY of the RPE.
Have you ever heard how albino people have shitty vision? The pale fuckers are basically fucking blind compared to their melanin enriched counterparts. Why do you think that is the case?
It's because they lack pigment in their RPE. This is /sci/, so I expect you understand that dark pigment absorbs energy (light) on a broader spectrum than transparent cells. It is VERY fucking important not just for acuity, but to prevent burning a hole in your god damn retina. People without pigmented RPEs have sensitive fucking eyes, on top of already being blind.
Explain to me. No, fucking explain to me dipshit how you put a dark layer in front of the photoreceptors. How do you do this?
The squid has a solution, if you were curious. That's how important the RPE is. It has a fucking hobbled together piece of shit solution that barely works. They have little granules floating around doing fuck all to draw light.
It rejects intelligent design, but not in the way you think.
