                Since the beginning of the twentieth century, evolutionary biologists have sought ex-
                amples of beneficial mutations by creating mutant flies. But these efforts have always
                resulted in sick and deformed creatures. The top picture shows the head of a normal
                fruit fly, and the picture on the left shows the head of a fruit fly with legs coming out of
                it, the result of mutation.

                       building which, in all probability, would not be an improvement. 28
                       Not surprisingly, no mutation example, which is useful, that
                  is, which is observed to develop the genetic code, has been ob-
                  served so far. All mutations have proved to be harmful. It was un-
                  derstood that mutation, which is presented as an "evolutionary
                  mechanism," is actually a genetic occurrence that harms living
                  things, and leaves them disabled. (The most common effect of mu-
                  tation on human beings is cancer.) Of course, a destructive mecha-
                  nism cannot be an "evolutionary mechanism." Natural selection, on
                  the other hand, "can do nothing by itself," as Darwin also accepted.
                  This fact shows us that there is no "evolutionary mechanism" in
                  nature. Since no evolutionary mechanism exists, no such any imag-
                  inary process called "evolution" could have taken place.


                    The Fossil Record: No Sign of Intermediate Forms

                       The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the theo-
                  ry of evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
                       According to the unscientific supposition of this theory, every
                  living species has sprung from a predecessor. A previously existing
                  species turned into something else over time and all species have
