He says there is no doubt that Darwin “successfully explained the small adjustments by which an organism adapts to local circumstances” through fur density or beak shape or wing style changes. It’s the big thing Gelernter now believes Darwin got wrong: humans.

Yep - saw a movie once where someone said monkeys developed shorter necks because it made it less likely for a broken neck to occur from a fall - IOW, the ones with longer necks had a higher mortality rate and shorter necks prevailed. That's what happens under Darwinism rather than a Blue whale and a termite springing from the same life form.

Yes. Darwinism explains MICRO-evolution, or changes within a species.

It has no bearing on MACRO-evolution, that apes, chimps, monkeys, and humans all came from a single ancestor. And, it’s easily (and reasonable) to understand why apes, chimps, monkeys and humans all have similar DNA components - that’s what God choose to work with, so that’s what’s in there.
