Lamarck believed that giraffes
evolved from such animals as
antelopes. In his view, the
necks of these grass-eating
animals gradually grew longer,
and they eventually turned in-
to giraffes. The laws of inheri-
tance discovered by Mendel in
1865 proved that it was impos-
sible for properties acquired
during life to be handed on to
subsequent generations.
Lamarck's giraffe fairy tale
was thus consigned to the
wastebin of history.

N Neo-Darwinism And Mutations
In order to find a solution, Darwinists advanced the “Modern
Synthetic Theory,” or as it is more commonly known, Neo-
Darwinism, at the end of the 1930's. Neo-Darwinism added muta-
tions, which are distortions formed in the genes of living beings due
to such external factors as radiation or replication errors, as the
“cause of favorable variations” in addition to natural mutation.
Today, the model that stands for evolution in the world is Neo-
Darwinism. The theory maintains that millions of living beings
formed as a result of a process whereby numerous complex organs
of these organisms (e.g., ears, eyes, lungs, and wings) underwent
“mutations,” that is, genetic disorders. Yet, there is an outright sci-
entific fact that totally undermines this theory: Mutations do not
cause living beings to develop; on the contrary, they are always
harmful.
The reason for this is very simple: DNA has a very complex
