But there are only 118 elements and their isotopes. There is a billions and billions of random chances fallacy that is quite popular with speakers opposed to evolution:
If you take a physical change between species, say a fin in one species which becomes a leg and foot in a descendent species, also let’s say there would have to be 25 inheritable changes in genes or their expression and they must occur in sequential order (1 followed by 2 followed by 3 and so on up to 25). How do you get there?
One of the major creationists illustrated it by numbering 25 wood blocks from one to 25 and put them in a box, shook the box and threw the blocks out onto the ground. Of course they came out in a random order. He then asked the audience how many times they would have to do that to get then to come out in order in one throw. Of course the odds of that happening are incredibly tiny though remotely possible.
The creationist conveniently left off natural selection. With natural selection governing the throwing of the blocks this is what would happen. You would throw the blocks until the block labeled #1 came out first. Then you would take that block out as having been selected. You would repeat the process until #2 block came out first and you would remove it as being selected and you would continue this process until the box was empty and the change complete. It would take you twenty minutes to an hour.
The universe and the chemical and physical laws limit the randomness of what happens so while certain processes may be random and there are many possibilities it isn’t a truly random process.
What criteria is number 1 selected based on? We know that the end result is 1 to 10. But how does number 1 know that the end result is supposed to be 1 to 10?
and the evolutionist conveniently leaves out how likely a favorable mutation is! What exactly is the mechanism for the appearance of beneficial traits that improve (add complexity) the genus?
