The Cambrian Evidence That Darwin Failed to Comprehend

tained features that could not be imitated even using the most ad-
vanced technologies. Life, even at the most basic level, refuted
claims based on chance.
This totally eliminated the claim of evolution by way of natural
selection. Professor of biochemistry Garret Vanderkooi describes
this process:
In the past, evolutionists were confident that the problem of the origin
of life would be solved by the new science of biochemistry. To their
dismay, the converse has occurred. The more that is learned about the
chemical structure and organization of living matter, the more diffi-
cult it becomes even to speculate on how it could have developed
from lower forms by natural processes. From the scientific point of
view, evolution may have been a plausible hypothesis in Darwin’s
day, but it has now become untenable, as a result of fairly recent de-
velopments in molecular biology [emphasis added]. 173
Developments in molecular biology on the one hand and ad-
vances in the understanding of the Cambrian explosion on the oth-
er led to a fundamental realization that the combination of natural
selection and mutation could not cause supposed evolution. Long
before the 1980s, when the facts regarding the Cambrian explosion
began to emerge, molecular biology had already revealed that mu-
tation and natural selection had no evolutionary impact.
Darwinists claimed that mutations were the mechanism for ge-
netic variation in the living world, before it emerged that their effect
on an organism were always destructive.
To recapitulate briefly, mutations are random changes in the
base sequences of genes. An organism’s body is constructed accord-
ing to its DNA’s genetic blueprint. This blueprint, in turn, is encod-
ed through nucleotides arranged in the DNA, which contains suffi-
cient information to fill volumes of encyclopedias.
