THE MIRACLE IN THE MOSQUITO


                     tations are harmful since they are random, rather than orderly
                     changes in the structure of genes; any random change in a highly or-
                     dered system will be for the worse, not for the better. For example, if
                     an earthquake were to shake a highly ordered structure such as a
                     building, there would be a random change in the framework of the
                     building which, in all probability, would not be an improvement. 9
                     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 mech-
                 anism cannot be an "evolutionary mechanism." Natural selection,
                 on the other hand, "can do nothing by itself," as Darwin also ac-
                 cepted. This fact shows us that there is no "evolutionary mecha-
                 nism" 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 the-
                 ory 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 over time and all species have come into being in
                 this way. In other words, this transformation proceeds gradually
                 over millions of years.
                     Had this been the case, numerous intermediary species should
                 have existed and lived within this long transformation period.
                     For instance, some half-fish/half-reptiles should have lived
                 in the past which had acquired some reptilian traits in addition to
                 the fish traits they already had. Or there should have existed some
