First of all, it must be noted that the fossil record is for the most part incomplete. While it is true that there are some fossils that seem to indicate a gradual increase in sophistication and complexity of species over a long period of time, there are so many major gaps, it is impossible to use the fossil record as evidence.
Mutations do occur. There is no dispute about that. But how do mutations account for the changes that take place from one species to another? In fact, genetic mutations and natural selection cannot begin to explain how even one, single protein or biological process could have "evolved".
The "Theory of Evolution" states that small, gradual changes in the genetic code sometimes resulted in a beneficial adaptation for an organism of a particular species, and
since it now lived a little longer or a little better, it naturally would have more offspring, and its new and improved genes get passed along. So evidence for evolution MUST show how genes evolved, and how various anatomical structures came to be. But again, there has never been even one experiment showing that a gene has evolved, or any anatomical structure or any physiological process, and instead of true, scientific evidence, the evolutionary scientists offer assumptions as to how they think that DNA or bones might have evolved.
