Tombi, you mentioned "general", and again, that's not the same as necessary. Again, I know the benificial mutations TEND to survive, the only problem is, they happen at random, and so that would have to make the process rather random as a whole.


 The mutations happen at random, evolution does not. The most adaptive animal does not survive randomly or by chance. He survives because he is the most adaptive. Again the 'quick' gene does not survive by chance or randomly, it survives because it is quick enough to escape from a predator. 

Evolution takes all the random mutations and gets rid of the 'weak' mutations, not by chance but because they are to 'weak' to survive.

If you do not understand that, you do not understand evolution. Evolution is not random or based on chance.
