were to shake a highly ordered structure such as a build-

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.
