organism’s internal structure need to change. To accomplish that, all
its genes would have to undergo mutations at the same time. Each
of these random mutations would also have to be beneficial. Such an
accumulation of changes is scientifically impossible.
Mutations are 99% harmful. The other 1% have no effect at all.
The internal characteristics of even the smallest organisms are too
complex to come about in stages. Genes cannot change in such a
way as to serve new functions, and cannot transform into different
genes that give rise to new properties. In the same way, the genetics
of any organism are very little influenced by external factors. It is
impossible for two organisms to develop a similar, common internal
characteristic under the pressure of external factors dependent on
various conditions. The probability of this happening is the same as
that of rolling a thousand dice and their all landing on a 6—in other
words, 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000, or 1 in a quintillion. (For de-

This information has been provided to demonstrate, in general
terms, how life forms differ from one another. Living things cannot
acquire an organ that did not previously exist by way of random fac-
tors. This applies even to the smallest taxonomical unit: One species
cannot turn into another; this is impossible. And the variety of life
that emerged in the Cambrian gave rise to different phyla more
than simply new species!
Fifty separate phyla, including the 35 alive today,
emerged suddenly in the Cambrian Period. Among the great
many details regarding the Cambrian that evolutionists cannot
account for, the sudden emergence of phyla exhibiting hun-
dreds, perhaps even many more, of different anatomical fea-
tures and characteristics—plus the fact that there were more of
these phyla than exist today—is a phenomenon that evolutionists
cannot possibly explain. The fossil record makes abundantly clear
