Previously almost the entire Christian world thought the Bible indicated that the Earth did not move and that all observable celestial objects (the Sun and the planets) were in orbit around the Earth.

What changed?

So if you previously answered the question about error prone DNA polymerase what other possible answer could you have had other than that in the context of a bacteria under stress “mutations are good”?

Yes, more than 99.9% of all the species that ever existed upon the Earth are now extinct. There is absolutely no evidence that they went extinct due to mutation.

All life is not “devolving”. Nor does “macro” evolution (i.e. speciation and the common descent of species) involve DNA being “completely re-written” - there is after all only a 2% difference in genetic DNA between a chimp and a human - a 2% change in genetic DNA is hardly “completely re-written”.

Do you think a bacteria under stress expresses error prone DNA polymerase in order to increase its rate of “deevolution”? Why would that lead to better survival outcomes?

Does your inability to make any coherent sense of reality in the context of your Creationist views trouble you?

It should.

Lazy scientists that liked the heliocentric math and chose to ignore what Einstein said about the math working for both geocentric and heliocentric models. That it is just a question of coordinate systems for either to be a working model. Scientists continued in their laziness and continued the evolution paradigm of ignoring any data that did not agree with their majority opinions as they shoved the Michelson-Morley experiments under the rug.

Missing the point entirely where I have never yet agreed with the total conjecture that any mutations are good. Here’s a hint for you amd ‘error prone DNA’ implies a stored collection of rejected mutations employed as a survival mechanism when the bacteria are under stress to try to ensure survival no matter what the cost. That is hardly a way to improve upon the original DNA.

2% difference in DNA is not a small enough gap to allow for macro-evolution. Macro-evolution has never been observed. No transitional fossils have ever been found. The vast amount of evidence uncovered in the last 150 years is enough to completely discard the theory that all life evolved from a simple cell!
