They now know of some of those molecular mechanisms, one of those discovered is now the most powerful gene editing tool in the world:
SPECTER: CRISPR is actually an ancient bacterial defense system. It's like an immune system for bacteria, which is surprising because for a long time, scientists didn't think bacteria had adaptive immune systems. But in 1987, some Japanese scientists were looking for something in DNA, and they saw this weird group of nucleotides, pieces of DNA. They had no idea what they were doing and what they meant and what their function was. And in a piece they published in The Journal of Bacteriology, the last sentence literally was, and we saw this weird, crazy group of nucleotides, and we have no idea what they're doing there. And that was that. And that was not for a very long time. (New Gene-Editing Techniques Hold the Promise Of Altering The Fundamentals Of Life. NPR)Again and again I have heard to argument of mutations plus selection equals evolution. This argument was specifically applied to the adaptation of plants, animals and especially to bacteria for decades. As it turns out there was an actual molecular mechanism that specifically targeted the immune system of bacteria. Once isolated this mechanism became the most powerful gene editing tool in the world, the full rights now owned by MIT.
What all of them are we are only beginning to understand but there are molecular mechanisms involved in adaptive evolution that are a natural part of genomes. That is exactly what a creationist would expect given a sound reliance on the divine providence of a sovereign creator. My point was and is, adaptive evolution is not a product of chance, it's a part of design. God designed and built living systems to build, grow and adapt.
As a part of what? As a part of living systems as God intended, evolution isn't an affront to creation, it's a viable proof of it since there is no naturally occurring process that could produce it apart from an originally created kind.
Four thousand years ago a limited number of mammals, birds and reptiles emerge from the ark and become, by a rough estimate, between 2 to 60 million species globally. Now unless God continued to create species the only logical explanation is they evolved according to the plans and purposes of God.

As I agree with you i disagree with changing from animals to humans as Adam named all the animals.
I can not and will not go against the truth of Gods word.
Yes, cells divide, but not to form new adaptive life, but to change eye color, hair color, how tall we are, stuff like this.
God invented us not from a adaptive approach, but from the dusk of the earth.
I was not disagreeing with you, I used your comment to show others truth on how they use educated sounding literature to better support there lies. And most of the lies are for funding, there is now billions pushed into evolution with no results other then 3d videos.
