                            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
