IMHO, as I under stand it, in the animal kingdom any generic variations are ostracized and are either killed or don't usually get to mate. All of the animal shows I see on TV talk about this. A white wolf has problems. Even in humans we see this. Case in point, what if, and this is a big if, Down Syndrome is just a part of evolution. Abortion or sterilization is the norm for these special people...

Good points. "Natural Selection is basically an agency of stasis and not change, and that is a major problem for evolutionists. Natural selection weeds out anything an iota to the left or right of the norm for a given species as you note. In the case of humans, abortion and sterilization might be the solution to such cases in fairly recent times; prior to recent times the solution was probably witchcraft trials.

Ignoring for second that the above statement is completely wrong, let's assume its true. If God is responsible for any changes in humans or animals and evolution requires that everything stays the same, how does God create dwarfs? What method does God use to create changes, and why are scientists able to track conditions, such as dwarfism, to genes in both parents?

Re 80: the solution was probably witchcraft trials.

Strange, but revealing, use of words. The "final solution" comes to mind.
