the system something new, and propelled it towards perfection.
Evolutionists are forced to maintain that these chance events functioned
perfectly, because any single error in any one component of a complex
system will mean everything returning back to the beginning, and the
system will be useless. Therefore, according to evolution, even though all
events are uncontrolled and random, they still function perfectly.
The “random phenomena” in question are actually random muta-
tions—structural changes in a living organism’s genes resulting from ex-
ternal effects such as radiation. These changes constitute a grave danger
if they are uncontrolled. Indeed, modern-day science has proved that mu-
tations inevitably arise from an adverse effect on a living thing’s molecu-
lar structure. Ninety-nine percent of mutations are harmful, while the re-
maining 1% are neutral. Therefore, mutations are simply defects and im-
Mutations that occur randomly are always harmful to living things.
The above picture shows a lamb born with five legs and butterflies
with impaired wing symmetry, again due to mutations.
