The mechanisms whereby mutations accumulate in different populations is replicable.

Observed evolutionary adaptation through mutational derived variations that are subject to selection are both necessary and sufficient to explain a 2% genetic difference in two populations over six or seven million years.

What would stop that mechanism from accumulating differences? What would stop those variations from being subject to selection?

One need not exactly reproduce the Grand Canyon to show that erosion is an understandable predictable and replicable mechanism that can form canyons.

Moreover you have, as is typical of Creationists when discussing evolution, moved the goal posts on to abiogenesis. There is currently no understood mechanism for abiogenesis - so such is not well understood, predictable or replicable.

But evolution sure is.

Too bad for you that you have to try to confuse and conflate the two subjects to try to cast aspersions upon what you obviously have so little knowledge of.

Care to explain to me again HOW organisms adapt to change and your evidence that supports it?

That would really be amusing!

When you can replicate a pool of lifeless molecules “evolving” into a man,

get back to me.

The goal posts historically *started* with abiogenesis vs. the hand of God, they didn't get moved there.

Quite an odd statement on your part.

Cheers!
