bounds on the rate of evolution
Hi, John. Your comment "an upper bound for the evolution of the modern eye, though not a very sharp one, would be the length of time between pre-Cambrian times and the current day" asssumes that the eye evolved by natural processes. A Paley-type Creationist would not accept that assumption, and would argue that, because of the eye's complexity, the lower bound is far longer than the conventional geological estimate of the age of the Earth. --Philcha (talk) 03:46, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
