Creation Moment 8/23/2019 - 5 Points of "Evolution" that Point to Genesis SERIES: 3

Natural selection

"Natural selection is promoted as the engine of evolution. According to evolutionary theory, mutations arise in organisms, causing different variations to form. The fittest forms are selected to carry on their genes.

But natural selection only explains the survival of the fittest, not the arrival of the fittest.

In other words, natural selection is merely a selective force, which culls out individuals with weaker genes.

Far from being an argument against creation, natural selection was a term which was actually invented by a creationist, Edward Blyth (1810—1873). Creationists acknowledge that new species (not a biblical term by the way) arise by natural selection, but they also vary within bounds, according to their kinds (the correct biblical term).

Evolutionists like to point out how some mutations lead to new species. The problem occurs when they carry this single step all the way back to the beginning of life. But the nature of mutations in the genetic material doesn’t bear this out."
