Natural selection, yes; evolution, no, Part Two

One shortcoming is that natural selection cannot plan ahead-an advantage one day may become a hindrance as the environment changes.  This can ultimately lead us to the extinction of a population despite its current success in the environment.  Natural selection favors specialization into distinct niches; when the environment changes, the specialization becomes a disadvantage.  It seems impossible that this process of undirected elimination could lead to an increase in variety and complexity.

Adaptations are usually presented in a way that makes that seem like a natural extension of natural selection.  There is limited evidence to suggest that natural selection can lead to new adaptations, but ample evidence shows that adaptations can lead to natural selection.  An adaptation must appear before natural selection can act on it.  Evolution cannot explain the appearance of these traits, but the Creator provided the variety needed in the original created kinds.

Questions for evolutionists, #1 (How did life originate?)

How did life originate?

Evolutionist Professor Paul Davies admitted, "Nobody knows how a mixture of lifeless chemicals spontaneously organized themselves into the first living cell." Andrew Knoll, professor of biology, Harvard said, "we don't really know how life originated on this planet". A minimal cell needs several hundred proteins. Even if every atom in the universe were an experiment with all the correct amino acids present for every possible molecular vibration in the supposed evolutionary age of the universe, not even one average-sized functional protein would form. So how did life with hundreds of proteins originate just by chemistry without intelligent design?
