Since the beginning of the twentieth century, evolutionary biologists have
sought examples 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.
would be a random change in the framework of the building which, in
all probability, would not be an improvement. 261
Not surprisingly, no mutation example, which is useful, that is,
which is observed to develop the genetic code, has been observed so far.
All mutations have proved to be harmful. It was understood that muta-
tion, 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 mutation on human beings is cancer.) Of
course, a destructive mechanism cannot be an "evolutionary mecha-
nism." 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 imaginary process called "evolution" could have taken place.
THE FOSSIL RECORD: NO SIGN OF INTERMEDIATE FORMS
The clearest evidence that the scenario suggested by the theory of
evolution did not take place is the fossil record.
According to this theory, every living species has sprung from a
predecessor. A previously existing species turned into something else
