First, genuine mutations are very rare in nature. Secondly, most
mutations are harmful since they are random, rather than orderly
changes in the structure 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 highly 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
improvement. 19
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 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 the unscientific supposition of this theory, every
living species has sprung from a predecessor. 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 existed and lived within this long transformation period.
