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 1930s. Neo-Darwinism added mutations, which are distor-
tions formed in the genes of living beings due to such external factors as
radiation or replication errors, as the "cause of favorable variations" in ad-
dition to natural mutation.
Today, the model that Darwinists espouse, despite their own aware-
ness of its scientific invalidity, is neo-Darwinism. The theory maintains
that millions of living beings formed as a result of a process whereby nu-
merous complex organs of these
organisms (e.g., ears, eyes, lungs,
and wings) underwent "muta-
tions," that is, genetic disorders.
Yet, there is an outright scientific
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
structure, and random effects can
only harm it. The American ge-
neticist B. G. Ranganathan explains
this as follows:
All mutations observed in human beings
are harmful. That is because living DNA First, genuine mutations are very

impact on this molecule can only be dam- rare in nature. Secondly, most mu-
