This is Ken Ham, on a mission to call the church back to God’s Word.
Examples of natural selection are often presented as “evolution in action.” But natural selection doesn’t have the power to generate anything “new.” It can only act upon existing characteristics, so that some members of a species are more likely to survive.
But evolution requires the addition of brand-new genetic information for new characteristics, and that’s never been observed.
So, natural selection doesn’t help evolutionists at all. But it does demonstrate God’s wisdom! He created each kind with a tremendous amount of genetic variability, so kinds can adapt.
Natural selection—it’s not evolution!
