154 THE MIRACLE OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

The American geneticist B.G. Ranganathan explains this
as follows:
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 sys-
tem 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. 27
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 clearest evidence that the scenario suggested
by the theory of evolution did not take place is the fos-
