“Neo-Darwinists proposed that natural variation occurred
primarily via mutation of genetic information. However,
recent discoveries show that mutations are accidental
damage events and are sending us all to extinction on a
remarkably short time scale due to what appears to be the
universally deleterious effects of these mutations.”
We’re all going to die “on a remarkably short time scale” due to genetic variations?
Strawman.
It sounds like the Al Gore could have wrote this.
“Despite life’s marvels, it all dies. Why? Theologically,
because of the Fall—Adam and Eve’s sin brought death into
a perfect world.5 The biological question then is ‘How?’,
and we shall see later that the answer is ‘mutations’. “
Another strawman.
No creature needs to live forever. Just enough to propogate.
People die of cancer, sure. And serious malformation due to mutated DNA can be fatal.
But there are positive mutations of DNA. Just think MRSA. Not positive for us, but they seem happier that your average Staphylococcus aureus.
But those are just “variations”, of course. Not that evil evolution.
