The Deception of Evolution

Since the beginning of the twentieth century, evolutionary biologists
have sought examples of useful mutations by creating mutant flies.
But these efforts have always resulted in sick and deformed crea-
tures. The top picture shows the head of a normal fruit fly, and the
picture on the right shows the head of fruit fly with legs coming out
of it, the result of mutation.
addition to natural mutation.
Today, the model that stands for evolution in the world is Neo-Dar-
winism. The theory maintains that millions of living beings formed as a
result of a process whereby numerous complex organs of these organ-
isms (e.g., ears, eyes, lungs, and wings) underwent "mutations," that is,
genetic disorders. Yet, there is an outright scientific fact that totally
undermines this theory: Mutations do not cause living beings to develop;
on the contrary, they are always harmful.
The reason for this is very simple: DNA has a very complex struc-
ture, and random effects can only harm it. The American geneticist B.G.
Ranganathan explains this as follows:
First, genuine mutations are very rare in nature. Secondly, most
