The heart of the problem is whether li-
ving things do indeed vary to an unlimi-
ted extent. . . . The species look stable.

point only to see the animals or plants
revert to where they had started. Despite
strenuous efforts for two or three centu-
ries, it has never been possible to produ-
ce a blue rose or a black tulip. 191

Genome Project, the

Evolutionist circles claim that the
Genome Project has proven their theory,
but there is no scientific basis to this.
Evolutionists engage in hollow claims
that the Genome Project has definitively
proven the theory of evolution, because
they actually have no concrete eviden-
ce, and there is no connection at all bet-
ween the Genome Project’s findings and
the claims of the theory of evolution.
It is a grave error to think that cau-
sing physical changes by tampering
with genes constitutes evidence for the
theory of evolution. True, within the
Human Genome Project defective genes
in living things may be able to be put
right. Certain inherited diseases may be
cured, and a species may be perfected
even further through altering its genes.
So long as all such interventions take
place at the hands of rational human be-
ings possessed of abilities and techno-
logy, they will continue to give cures
and improvements.
But the most important criticism of
