Why can't the human brain process images sub-atomically, microscopically, dimensionally, etc. since individual cells control all of its Internal/external process. How do we know no species can!!! Is there a flip side: Our eyes/brain can, but God Will prevents us from naturally seeing into reality on differenr scales, levels, etc. Is anything we naturally see, observe, etc at any giVen moment IS ACTUALLY INDEED HOW IT APPEARS TO OUR EYES, SENSES!

Did you take the red pill?

"the OP"
Huh?
The eyes only function with enough capacity to allow the species survive long enough to reproduce. Processing images sub-atomically, microscopically, etc. is not needed since this doesn't give the organism any survival advantage. It has nothing to do with god's will and all about survival/evolution.

Why is our eye-sight so simple. Why not extremely complex, specialized, magnified, its. Does all evolution tend to support capabilities ONLY NECCESSARY FOR SURVIVAL. It would be great if did not need microscropes, etc.

Under what conditions would natural selection favour "microscope vision"?

ETA: Or to turn the question around, why didn't God give us such a keen eyesight?

Where is this thread going and what is it doing in this handbasket?

None, but some species may be able to do so, why can't humans. Natural selection could favor it due to fact that many harmful microscopic organism eg bacteria, viruses, parasites, can actually harm species and this microscopic, sub-atomic, eyesight would help identiyty these species better and probably discover beter ways to kill or elimite their harm to us.

Most of harmful organism to us and all large species are microscopic!

So do you think subatomic life forms are a significant health threat to us?

No only microscopic. But remember, all microscopic life is composed of subatomic parts. Look at viruses. they widely debated rather they're living or non living due to their extremely simple composition. They can't survive outside of any organism very long. They only have DNA OR RNA, NOT BOTH. But these organisms cause the most deadly diseases known, AIDS, EBOLA, and many others
