This is Ken Ham, president of Answers in Genesis and the Ark Encounter.
Is natural selection “evolution in action”? Not at all! As we have learned all this week, natural selection results in small changes within a kind. Evolution requires huge changes between kinds—something that has never been observed.
Now, natural selection really highlights the mercy and wisdom of our Creator. He knew that Adam and Eve would sin and that death and suffering would come into Creation. He knew that organisms—especially after the Flood—would have to deal with changing environments. So He put incredible variability into the DNA of every creature so that they could survive in a changing world.
The observable process of natural selection brings glory to our all-wise and caring Creator.
