dermines 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 struc-
ture, and random effects can only harm it. The American geneticist B. G.
Ranganathan explains this as follows:
First, genuine mutations are very rare in nature. Secondly, most mutations
are harmful since they are random, rather than orderly changes in the struc-
ture of genes; any random change in a highly ordered system will be for the
worse, not for the better. For example, if an earthquake were to shake a high-
ly 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 im-
provement. 98
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 ge-
netic 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 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 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 pre-
decessor. 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
