Quotes Regarding Mutations
 |
"To postulate that the development
and survival of the fittest is entirely a consequence of chance mutation seems
to me a hypothesis based on no evidence and irreconcilable with the facts.
These classical evolutionary theories are a gross
over-simplification of an immensely complex and intricate mass of facts, and
it amazes me that they are swallowed so uncritically and readily, and for such
a long time, by so many scientists without a murmur of protest."
Sir Ernest Chain,
Co-holder of the 1945 Noble Prize for
developing penicillin. |

"Nine-tenths of the talk of
evolutionists is sheer nonsense, not founded on observation and wholly
unsupported by facts.
This museum is full of proofs of the utter falsity
of their views. In all this great museum, there is not a particle of evidence
of the transmutation of species." |
Dr. Etheridge,
World famous palaeontologist of the British Museum
|
"...the educated public continues
to believe that Darwin has provided all the relevant answers by the magic
formula of random mutation plus natural selection – quite unaware of the fact
that random mutations turned out to be irrelevant and natural selection a
tautology." |
Arthur
Koestler,
Soldier, writer and philosopher
|
"With the inability of mutations
of any type to produce new genetic information, the maintenance of the basic
plan is to be expected....
There are limits to biological change and these
limits are set by the structure and function of the genetic machinery." |
L. P. Lester Ph.D. and R. G.
Bohlin Ph.D,
"The Natural Limits of Biological Change"
|
"Variation is one thing,
evolution quite another; this cannot be emphasized strongly enough...
Mutations provide change, but not progress." |
Pierre Grasse,
Editor of the 28-volume "Traite de Zoologie," for 30
years the Chair of Evolution, Sorbonne University, and ex-president of the
French Academie des Sciences, "Evolution of Living Organisms: Evidence for a
New Theory of Transformation," Academic Press: New York NY, 1977, p.88
|
"To improve a living organism by
random mutation is like saying you could improve a Swiss watch by dropping it
and bending one of its wheels or axis.
Improving life by random mutation has the
probability of zero."
|
Albert Szent-Gyorgi,
Nobel Laureate (Medicine, 1937)
|
"In 10 million years, a human-like
species could substitute no more than 25,000 expressed neutral mutations and
this is merely 0.0007% of the genome — nowhere near enough to account for
human evolution.
This is the trade secret of evolutionary
geneticists."
Walter James ReMine,
The Biotic Message : Evolution versus Message Theory |
