With the 200th celebration of Darwin I read the following in an article entitled “Beauty in Motion” by Dr.R. J. Guliuzza. “Humans possess a phenomenal ability to roll, twist, spin, jump, twirl, flip, run, leap and lunge as a single movement or in complex combinations either forwards or backwards. In bare feet or on wheels, skates, skis etc

Two important sensors that detect inertia and momentum of the body are housed in the ear and are about the size of a grain of rice. These two sensors give us the exceptional ability to do the things that ballerinas and gymnasts do and the “simple actions” that the rest of us do – sit, stand and walk.”

Perhaps the next time you are eating rice whether at home or in a restaurant you will ask yourself - I’m sitting here so how did those two sensors so small as to fit in my ears get the ability to control with such perfection the things the human body can do. Did they evolve? If they did how did our forefathers sit, stand, walk etc and survive or am I created by God who actually loves me
