Darwin's theory explaining how evolution occurs does not involve mutations, either large or small. His theory is about "Natural Selection". You might want to read his books to understand what he means by that. Darwin's theory of "Natural Selection" is still the "prevailing" theory used to explain what most evolutionists believe to be the principle mechanism that causes evolution. Many people have the very mistaken belief that Darwin's theory is about mutations. Sam Heywood -- This mail was written by user of The Arachne Browser: http://browser.arachne.cz/
