So while the genetic differences in those dark mice may well be the result of random mutations, evolutionists do not even give this a second thought. Too often I have debated evolutionists who, when I point to this evidence, simply deny it. For many years evolutionists have ignored and even resisted these findings. This is not merely a technical objection - in spite of evolutionary theory which called for random mutations to be the source of change, in recent decades directed mutations have been found to be at work in an ever increasing number of cases. For evolutionists there simply is no question that the genetic differences that are thought to cause the dark fur color arose from random mutations. The first problem in casting the dark colored mice as an example of evolution is that their genetic differences are not known to be the result of random mutations. Evolutionists have misappropriated this research work, casting it as a textbook example of evolution, and creating a video (above) to indoctrinate students. But that is where the science is overtaken by the dogma. Blending in with the terrain helps to camouflage the mice, protecting them from predators.Īnd that is, apparently, exactly what the mice did about a thousand years ago when desert lava flows produced the darkened terrain. Mice populations living on light colored terrain tend to have light colored fur, and those on dark colored terrain tend to have dark colored fur. About 15 years ago researchers discovered genetic differences that probably explain the different fur coloring in desert mice populations in New Mexico and Arizona (see papers here and here).
