probability, would not be an improvement. 44
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 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 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
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 evo-
lution did not take place is the fossil record.
According to this theory, every living species has sprung from a prede-
cessor. A previously existing species turned into something else over time
and all species have come into being in this way. In other words, this trans-
formation 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 reptile-birds, which
acquired some bird traits in addition to the reptilian traits they already had.
Since these would be in a transitional phase, they should be disabled,
defective, crippled living beings. Evolutionists refer to these imaginary
creatures, which they believe to have lived in the past, as "transitional
forms."
If such animals ever really existed, there should be millions and even
billions of them in number and variety. More importantly, the remains of
