Top 10 Reasons why evolution can't happen

Observed evidences strongly contradict with textbook versions of the theory of evolution

1. Random mutations result in corruption of genetic information. There are 628,685  gene-disease associations in human genome at population level but the number of random fully beneficial mutations is zero.

2.There's no junk-DNA in genomes.

3. Every biologist understands that mutational burden (genetic load) is so heavy, that without junk-DNA evolution will become a destructive process because harmful genetic mutations are always targeted to useful and functional DNA strands.

4. Organisms experience ecological adaptation and variation due to epigenetic mechanisms and factors. Every claimed example of evolution has been due to epigenetic regulation of pre-existing biological information. These are for example, blind cave fish, Darwin's Finch beak changes,Italian wall lizard, bacterial antibiotic resistance, lactose tolerance, high altitude adaptation etc.
 
Hey, let me be alone. I'm evolving into a whale.
5. Epigenetic modifications often result in subtle DNA errors. Mechanisms are already well understood (link 1 and link 2).

6. DNA has no control over cellular processes. DNA is just passive type of biological information. It does nothing without epigenetic control and regulation. A stem cell has the same DNA sequences as a differentiated cell but the stem cell has no identity or a task. It has to be programmed epigenetically in order that it could have an identity.

7. Organismal variation (so called speciation) can happen only inside a genus (a kind). Speciation happens due to epigenetic mechanisms driven by diet type, climate, stressors, sensory stimuli, pheromones, toxicants etc. The more variation, the more information loss.

8. Endogenous retroviruses is a necessary defense mechanism for a developing embryo and they are accurately controlled by the innate immune system.

9. At least 40,000 species are going extinct every year during our lifetime. They all have a common denominator: Loss of genetic diversity.

10. There is no scientific (observed) evidence for the theory of evolution.
