Just a theory I have. Most of you are going to say Philly's nuts, I know. Try to follow me here for a second, ok?
We don't see light. We see partial light. Meaning, we never get to see the full spectrum of light itself. Because the eye can't see all of it.
On a perfect sunny day and with perfect vision, around 30% of all light remains invisible to our eyes.
So, just thinking about that, what could that mean?
Well, for starters, it could mean a lot of shit is invisible to us.
Including creatures.
We live in a three dimensional world. Which means this basically...
Think of a creature, let's say an ant for example. Let's put this ant in a one dimensional world.
That ant would only ever know what was in his one dimension and nothing else.
Now, let's take a creature, let's say a spider, and put him in a two dimensional world.
That spider would, at all times, be able to watch every move the ant in the one dimensional world would ever make.
The ant, however, would never know of the spider's existence let alone it was being watched by it.
The same applies as you go up from every dimension.
The spider would never know about the creature watching it from the third dimension and so forth.
What I'm saying is, our eyes are blind even in our own world and dimension.
If we could see everything, we would be terrified at what we saw.
Our eyes were created specifically to blind us from those terrifying things that are invisible to us.
Imagine what is looking at us right now from the fourth dimension.
And we have no idea.
