" I wonder about this. Arch ridges can be relatively horizontal, i.e. ridges in one direction only (unlike loops and whorls). Does this mean that those with arch fingerprints are less sensitive to swiping sideways i.e. the same direction as the arch ridges? And those with whorls sensitive to any direction? And those with loops particularly sensitive to a side-ways swipe? That's quite interesting to speculate about. “Thankfully, the whorls, arches, and loops on real human fingertips mean that swiping in any direction will activate the filtering effect. ”

As far as we know, three senses of humans are working on a "vibration" pattern. Seeing, hearing and the sense of smell. I am not sure about the taste. Now sense of touch is also added. I believe it will follow as well. Pretty interesting though, when i first watched the TED talk about the sense of smell, and the new discovery of the technology of synthetic smell creation, the guy said that we used to think that chemical particles somehow fit in the appropriate blanks in the sensory nerves in the nose. But he said that the nerves actually sense the vibrations of the chemical elements, as they all vibrate in a different pattern.

I can just see the headlines on ICR now: Magical fingerprint IMPOSSIBLE for silly evolutionists! Wow. What's really sad is that they don't even do actual research. They only scan for articles that are written by those who do the research, and then utilize the G-D of the gaps. Wow though, that is impressive. Fingerprints are effing choice. Truly amazing.
