305. What About Natural Selection?

Fying Turtle
Natural Selection is defined as a process in nature in which organisms possessing certain genotypic characteristics that make them better adjusted to an environment tend to survive, reproduce, increase in number or frequency, and therefore, are able to transmit and perpetuate their essential genotypic qualities to succeeding generations.

Put another way,  natural selection is the process that results in the evolution of organism.

We all see that natural selection can change a species in small ways.  We see many changes within a species.  We know that natural selection can cause a population to change color or size over the course of several generations. This is called “microevolution” or horizontal evolution.  No problem.  I agree.

But is natural selection capable of much more?  Given enough time and enough accumulated changes, can natural selection create entirely new species?   Can it turn dinosaurs into birds, apes into humans and amphibious mammals into whales?  Is it capable of improving the genetic code and DNA blueprint?

And all of these changes without any effects on the dinosaur (or alligator), ape, or amphibious mammal?  Is natural selection not uniform (Law of Uniformity); only effecting some groups of a species, leaving all of the others unaffected for millions of years?

How does natural selection perform this mutation?  Observational science wants to know how.  What is the mechanism, force, or cause that creates this effect?  What force changes the DNA so that a specific animal does NOT create after its own kind?

So what is the difference between these two religion that explain evolution?

  1. Evolution happens by the “natural selection” force.
  2. Evolution happens by the “God” force.

I see no difference between the two and see no evidence of a cause for vertical evolution.  Furthermore, I see laws of science violated by natural selection.  Law of Information is one of the laws.
