                       2. Bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics survive; those with-
                  out resistant genes die, but no truly new species emerges. Since on-
                  ly non-resistant bacteria die, bacteria with resistance multiply into
                  a more numerous strain of the same bacterium. The proponents of
                  Darwinism refer to this change as "micro-evolution" and claim that

                  this constitutes a small step in the large-scale speciation known as
                  macro-evolution. However, as you can see, bacteria handing on an-
                  tibiotic-resistant genes to other bacteria is not an evolutionary
                  mechanism. In order for this to constitute evidence for evolution,
                  this exchange would have to add new information to the organ-
                  ism's DNA. Yet as the result of exchange, the bacterium does not ac-
                  quire immunity. The resistance already exists within its DNA.

                       3. In all the mutations evolutionists put forward as beneficial,
                  the mutation has actually caused the organism to lose information,
                  and become damaged. Evolutionists have therefore found them-
                  selves in a major impasse in trying to explain how mutations add
                                      useful information to the data bank of DNA.
                                                The fact that bacteria possess such
                                              features is a major cause of concern in
                                               the doomsday scenarios recently
