Logic puzzles

On Friday we were given a logic puzzle to figure out in class. My mind clicks with these sorts of puzzles. I don't know if this means I am linear or not but I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a definite way to prove that reasoning is a form of knowledge because from the clues I had to think deeper and analyze to find the answers. You can't just perceive the answers unless the people who teach the reef not and the bowtie actually exist and you see them holding their favorite flower while they are doing it.

Secondly we watched a segment of the Hour with the author of the book Kluge. The idea behind the book was that the human body in particular the brain is not of perfect design. It was a huge political statement that supported evolution over creation. I was intrigued. I am on the fence with creation and evolution. But the ideas behind hte fact that our bodies are imperfect is not often brought up in society. We always seem to think we are the best of the best. We try to categorize things and explain all phenomenon but I don't think there is a good explanation supporting creation that explains why we are imperfect. All in all its confusing. I need to do other homework but I am going to ponder this.
