Genes cannot turn into still-
                 functioning genes by undergo-
                 ing mutation. Nor can they give
                 rise to completely different or-
                 gans or limbs, such as a wing in
                 place of an arm, by such chan-
                 ges. The probability of an inter-
                 nal characteristic emerging
                 spontaneously in an organism
                 is the same as throwing a die
                 1,000 times and it coming up 6
                 every time—in other words, 1 in
                 1 quintillion. In mathematical
                 terms, such a probability is ze-
                 ro.
