Re: huge mistake....propaganda
Wel, do you understand what context it is in.
​
It takes energy to keep on eye functioning. In an environment where eyes are unneeded, since there is no light (such as a cave), then eyes become redundant, and those members that can not see are not weeded out from the general population. What happens is that the eyes become vestigial, because there is no advantage to them.
