ly misleading to portray these as evidence of evolution.
These cases are cases of variations, or micro-evolution, that

Evolutionists maintain that the first single-celled organ-
ism emerged billions of years ago from inorganic sub-
stances, and that the glorious diversity of life on Earth,

Note that according to the Darwinist claim, millions of
