"Our entire intellectual culture is built on the unproven and unscientific foundation (assumption) of evolution.
Evolution in turn rests on three basic claims:
--Life arose from chemicals by blind random processes.
--The raw material for evolution is random mutations. (Random mutations supply the necessary variation.)
--Natural selection propels the evolution of all organisms by selecting mutations that provide a survival advantage for the organism. Although natural selection, Darwin’s own proposed mechanism, may be able to explain the conservation and fine-tuning of existing traits, it cannot account for what is commonly called macroevolution. The postulated source of evolutionary variation is mutations, but since >99 % of mutations are neutral or harmful, each generation accumulates more genetic damage than it removes—an unsustainable trend that modern genomics confirms.
*Another major problem for evolution is that life was designed to not evolve—to resist evolutionary change rather than to embrace it.
The main proposed source of genetic variety is mutations, which provide genetic variety that, in turn, allows improved survivability.

Yet cells invest enormous resources in preventing and correcting precisely those mutations. In humans alone, more than a dozen highly sophisticated DNA-repair pathways—mismatch repair, base-excision repair, nucleotide-excision repair, homologous recombination, non-homologous end-joining, etc.—detect and correct well over 99.9 % of the spontaneous base changes and damage events that occur every cell cycle."
