This poses a great | This poses a great conundrum for evolution theory. Evolutionists claim that the base mechanism of evolution is mutations which increasing genetic information and ultimately define new anatomical structures and biological function. Yet many mutations cause genetic entropy which is compound because of the compressed nature of genomes. Therefore, to believe that accruing mutation designs new information, features and functions is like believing that one can walk uphill by taking one step forward and two steps backward, and any claim that a mutation which is fixed in a genome should be considered carefully before it is stated to be truly neutral. | ||
