evolution as described in textbooks is a complete and utter lie. variation within species is natural, scientific and observable. changing species, dna suddenly containing information for structures, organs and appendages that never were in the original animal to begin with, are all lies. mutations do not add information, they damage existing information and make the organism less useful than the unmutated stock.
The ferns in my front yard breed through the facility of motile sperm ~ just like my neighbors cat!
He undoubtedly had a nursery.
I agree with you that it is hard to imagine certain structures just appearing on the scene suddenly by slow accumulations of genetic traits. I saw a program once about the Pterosaurs and how they had radically different forms than anything before and these structures were crucial for flight. In fact it seemed to the scientists studying it that if any one of these were missing it could not have flown. What would the transitional forms that could not fly do with a 10 ft. long finger. That’s what formed the wing. I don’t agree though that all mutations are harmful though. Some, like a different pigment that helps an animal blend in better and avoid predators would be helpful.
