Another Brain Short-Circuiter

This one, like the previous one, is to be found on Anton Feestra's "Confuse Your Brain" site. This time, it illustrates some processing glitches inherent in the design of the human Visual Cortex. Which should tell people who hold to the "argument by design" tenet of Creation "Science" something about either the sense of humour, or the fallibility of the Almighty. Personally, I'm an Agnostic who leans towards Theism, but consider the "Theory" of Evolution to be as well proven (and as ill-understood in the finer details) as the "Theory" of Gravity.

The lines are straight, but they're also parallel. Measure them and see. I did.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.

Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.

Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.

As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
