                     were to shake a highly ordered structure such as a build-
                     ing, there would be a random change in the framework
                     of the building which, in all probability, would not be

                     an improvement.  9
                    Not surprisingly, no mutation example, which is useful, that
                 is, which is observed to develop the genetic code, has been ob-
                 served so far. All mutations have proved to be harmful. It was
                 understood that mutation, which is presented as an "evolution-
                 ary mechanism," is actually a genetic occurrence that harms liv-
                 ing things, and leaves them disabled. (The most common effect
                 of mutation on human beings is cancer.) Of course, a destruc-
                 tive mechanism cannot be an "evolutionary mechanism." Nat-
                 ural selection, on the other hand, "can do nothing by itself," as

                 Darwin also accepted. This fact shows us that there is no "evo-
                 lutionary mechanism" in nature. Since no evolutionary mech-
                 anism exists, no such imaginary process called "evolution"
                 could have taken place.


                         The Fossil Record: No Sign of
                                Intermediate Forms

                    The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the the-
                 ory of evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
                    According to the unscientific supposition of this theory, every

                 living species has sprung from a predecessor. A previously ex-
                 isting species turned into something else over time and all
                 species have come into being in this way. In other words, this
                 transformation proceeds gradually over millions of years.
