A genetic mutation that was unsuccessful at sustaining long term life and reproduction.

Unique new term but theres fatal mutations, and evolutionstpry dead ends.
Everyone knows that.

Intelligent design took place the first 6 days of creation then it was completed.
You don't think maybe Satan tried to replicate what God did?

I dont. I did call equivocation games childish.
What would you call it.
And i dont just offer quips.
Thats someone on your team.

Your posts about evolution very clearly demonstrate
little knowledge of the subject, very far from sufficient
for a reasoned decision to accept or reject the theory.

The objections you bring up are typical of creationist site
nonsense regardless of where you got them- common sense
included. Common sense is no substitute for study that would
have long since saved you asking questions or making statements
that dont actually make sense.

If my personal style doesnt suit you, you can avoid me.
Then too, I can be more careful of your feelings.

Deal?

Nature by itself cannot produce a species change, we can, in a lab setting using genetic materials, but there is no way to change Dna of a species out in the wild!

Oh, come on.

Nobody's going to pull you out of your chosen delusion with any amount of evidence.

The quote proves how common knowledge the fraud of Lucy is. Give it a rest.
There are many things a lot of people think they know that are mistaken, usually based on false rumours and/or misinformation - sometimes deliberate. Lucy was the first of several hundred specimens of Australopithecus discovered since and examined and verified by all the leading palaeontologists of our time. If you want evidence, the bones are viewable, the analyses are viewable, the peer-reviewed published papers are viewable.

If you're interested in how and why the fraud claims were mistaken, there's a good article on it here: Lucy's Knee Joint.

No way for DNA to change outside a lab?

What do you mean by "species change"?
Its not a term of art in science.

No offence intended, but if you take an Evolution 101 course you'll discover how evolution really works and why the ideas in your post are seriously mistaken.

At least if you have a clear understanding of how evolution works you'll be able to raise reasonable criticisms and have them answered. Until then you're just wasting your time arguing against something that isn't the theory of evolution ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

False.

Non-life doesn't appear into a multi-celled organism in a trillion trillion spontaneous chance scenarios.

Fail.

From the site you linked to:

"Often, people who disagree with the theory of evolution do not really understand it. For example, some people think that the theory of evolution explains how life on Earth first began. In fact, the theory explains only how life changed after it first appeared."​

That site gives a decent summary of evolution, and shows where you're understanding of it is mistaken - particularly the idea that organisms had or needed any intent to evolve.

You really should pick a side.

God didn't make a fence to sit upon.

At best, you are displaying a luke-warm faith. That makes God pretty angry.

In other words, your camp has absolutely NO CLUE how life began besides God's Creation. You just tell a story about what happened AFTER the most critical part.

That's about as good as "Once upon a time there was nothing ... THEN IT EXPLODED AND BECAME EVERYTHING!!!"

I made my point very clear. Abiogenesis is a PART of the science that explains how all of life came about. Call it whatever you like, it is the complete opposite of Creationism. And that's what matters in this discussion.

I already have:
The position that you are implying is not technically a Christian position.

It is a deist position. Christ does not support this description of His Creative works:
Creationism vs. Intelligent Design. (slate.com)
