Mutations

• Why don’t mutations help Evolutionists?
• THE TRUTH ABOUT MUTATIONS—Are mutations responsible for Evolution from amoeba to man? Evolutionism and the blind watchmaker / Genetic mutations cannot produce such positive changes in living creatures
• Mutations: Magic Wands or Menace?
• “In human beings the substitute of a single ‘letter’ in the genetic message is responsible for such lethal hereditary diseases as sickle-cell anemia and thalassemia. Several common cancers are also associated with a single-letter change.”

Wagner, Ph.D. from Harvard University [Miroslav Radman and Robert Wagner, “The High Fidelity of DNA Duplication,” Scientific American, Vol. 259, No. 2 (August 1988), pp. 40-46.]
• CANCEROUS MUTATIONS—Where did cancer come from? A Christian doctor of pathology discusses the true nature of cancer and its fascinating connection to the Edenic curse which followed Adam and Eve’s sin.

• KANGAROOS—Did they evolve from some other animal? Where do they come from? Why the pouch? Why do they hop?
  
• Did horses evolve from a small fox-like animal? Many textbooks teach that the horse has evolved from only 61 centimeters to its present state of over 2 meters over a 60 million year period. But learn what inconsistencies the textbooks don’t teach about the horse’s Evolution.

Created kinds

• Creationists represent life’s ancestry with many separate family trees. Each basic “kind” of animal (“baramin” is a more accurate term) was created separately. Originally, God created each animal either from the dust of the Earth or from nothing. They had no ancestors. There are no ancestral roots on these trees.

  In each original animal, God placed a unique set of complex coded information—their genetic code. This enabled them to produce more animals like themselves. And it prevented one created-kind of animal from changing into another created-kind of animal.

  Not only did God provide man with all these wonderfully different kinds of animals, he built into the system something which allowed even more delights for man to discover in the future. These genetic codes were designed to allow interesting variations to develop within each “kind.” From one original “kind” of butterfly, many variations have developed through the years. Each variety is a different branch on the tree of that “kind.” In the same way, through one original type of dog, hundreds of variations have developed—from poodles to dobermans.

  In designing this potential for variation, God provided us with a never ending source of delight. He never meant for us to be bored with creation! Now mankind has not just one type of dog or cat or cattle, but hundreds of variations to enjoy. What a wonderful Creator we have!

• CHARLES DARWIN—Was he a Christian? Did he believe in God? Did he recant Evolutionism when he died?
