"Actually it is a split in information. Fruit fly abcdef has branched off into fruit fly abcd and abef without enough information to any longer reproduce with each other. In a sense it becomes a case of devolution, whereas, information is being reduced rather than added on."

"Often the word mutation is loosely applied. For evolution to take place new information would have to constantly be added to organisms bringing them from the very simple"

Go read up on the Theory of Evolution as you obviously don't understand what it is. Let me write it again for you:

In biology, evolution is the change in the heritable traits of a population over successive generations, as determined by changes in the allele frequencies of genes. Over time, this process can result in speciation, the development of new species from existing ones.

The fact that the fruit fly populations were no longer able to reproduce is called SPECIATION. That is evolution.

ANd I was just WAITING for someone to bring up Irreducible Complexity, an idea that has been thoroughly debunked time and time again, most recently at the Dover Trials.
