Mutations not beneficial

After reading the Aug. 15  letter in response to “Science 101 for Pastor Huck,” all I can say is “ha ha ha ha.” Terry Alexander, in my opinion, seems ill‑informed on his (or her) science education. If you want to talk science, then let’s talk science:

Evolution teaches that man originated from apes. We find ape fossils and human fossils, but where are the “ape men?” Here are some of your ape men: Lucy, a partial skeleton found in 1975, is an upper torso of a chimpanzee that comes complete with a human knee joint. What secular scientists fail to mention, however, is that its founder discovered the knee joint over one mile away from the torso and 300 feet deeper in the soil.

Nebraska man was imagined after the tooth of a pig was found buried in the soil, and Java man, the only remains being an ape skull and a human leg bone, was found with the leg bone nearly 50 feet from the site where the skull was found. So, not only is your method of finding of these apemen faulty, but you have to lie about your findings.

Evolution is supposedly the result of millions and millions of small, beneficial mutations in organisms. But, in reality, mutations aren’t good. They either hurt or kill. Cancer kills. Hemophilia isn’t too good. Many diseases are harmful or even lethal. These aren’t beneficial like they’re supposed to be. Pierre Paule Grasse, an evolutionist of sorts, got it right when he said: “No matter how numerous they may be, mutations do not produce any kind of evolution.”
