Morgan, Goldschmidt, Muller, and other geneticists have subjected gen-
erations of fruit flies to extreme conditions of heat, cold, light, dark, and
treatment by chemicals and radiation. All sorts of mutations, practically
all trivial or positively deleterious, have been produced. Man-made evo-
lution? Not really: Few of the geneticists' monsters could have survived
outside the bottles they were bred in. In practice, mutants die, are sterile,
or tend to revert to the wild type. 91

Gordon Rattray Taylor is an evolutionist author and chief science
advisor for the BBC:
It is a striking, but not much mentioned fact that, though geneticists have
been breeding fruit-flies for sixty years or more in labs all around the
world-flies which produce a new generation every eleven days-they have
never yet seen the emergence of a new species or even a new enzyme. 92

Lynn Margulis is an American biologist and professor in the
Department of Geosciences at the University of Massachusetts:
New mutations don’t create a new species; they create offspring that are
impaired. 93
In a statement in New Scientist in 2003 the evolutionary biologist
George Turner said:
Not long ago, we thought we knew how species formed. We believed that
the process almost always started with complete isolation of populations.
It often occurred after a population had gone through a severe "genetic
bottleneck", as might happen after a pregnant female was swept off to a
remote island and her offspring mated with each other. The beauty of this
so-called "founder effect" model was that it could be tested in the lab. In
reality, it just didn't hold up. Despite evolutionary biologists' best efforts,
nobody has even got close to creating a new species from a founder pop-
ulation. What's more, as far as we know, no new species has formed as a
result of humans releasing small numbers of organisms into alien envi-
ronments. 94
The Darwinist French zoologist, Pierre Paul Grassé:
As soon as some disorder, even slight, appears in an organized being,
sickness, then death follow. THERE IS NO POSSIBLE COMPROMISE BE-
TWEEN THE PHENOMENON OF LIFE AND ANARCHY. 95
