If we connect back to the watchmaker and the theory that it is impossible for an eye to have come about by chance, the question was asked “What use is half a wing? It was in 1871 that St. George Jackson Mivart challenged Darwin. The explanation he asked for is what arises between the flying and the terrestrial individual. The answer is that half a wing is better than no wing, the gradual development gives the survivor the chance to reproduce. We quote a little from “The Blind Watchmaker” (Richard Dawkins):
The minimum requirement for us to recognize an object as an animal or plant is that it should succeed in making a living of some sort (more precisely that it, or at least some members of its kind, should live long enough to reproduce). It is true that there are quite a number of ways of making a living flying, swimming, swinging through the trees, and so on. But, however many ways there may be of being alive, it is certain that there are vastly more ways of being dead, or rather not alive. You may throw cells together at random, over and over again for a billion years, and not once will you get a conglomeration that flies or swims or burrows or runs, or does anything, even badly, that could remotely be construed as working to keep itself alive.
