do not possess such imbalances. According to the claims of the Darwinists,
everything formed by mutations must be symmetrical and compatible. How-
ever, all mutations are harmful. In the past, it was assumed that 99% of the

mutations were harmful while the remaining 1% was neutral. Yet new re-
searches revealed that those 1% of mutations that take place in those regions
of the DNA that do not code proteins and were thus assumed to be harmless,
are in fact harmful in the long run. That is why scientists named these muta-
tions as 'silent mutations'. It is impossible for mutations that are absolutely
harmful to form rational, compatible, symmetrical organs at the same time.
Mutations can be likened to shooting at an intact structure with a machine
gun. Shooting at an intact object will completely ruin its structure. One of the bul-
lets proving ineffective, or curing a pre-existing infection in the body by cauter-

izing it, does not change the result. The organism would already be ruined by the
remaining 99 bullets that hit it.
Lynn Margulis, a member of the US National Academy of Sciences, has
made the following confession regarding the evident harmful effects of mu-
tations:

New mutations don't create new species; they create offspring that
are impaired. (Lynn Margulis, quoted in Darry Madden, UMass Scien-

tist to Lead Debate on Evolutionary Theory, Brattleboro (Vt.) Reformer,

Also in an interview in 2011, Margulis emphasized the fact that "there is

to new species:

[N]eo-Darwinists say that new species emerge when mutations
occur and modify an organism. I was taught over and over again
that the accumulation of random mutations led to evolutionary

change-led to new species. I believed it until I looked for evidence.
