Sanford|John Sanford]] on eroding [[genome]]s of all living organisms due to [[mutations]] inherited from one generation to the next is declared to be one of the major challenges to [[Evolution|evolutionary theory]]. The central part of Sanford’s argument is that mutations, represented by spelling mistakes in [[DNA]], are accumulating so quickly in some creatures (and particularly in people) that [[natural selection]] cannot stop the ''functional degradation'' of the genome, let alone drive an evolutionary process that could lead for example, from apes into people.<ref>{{cite web − |title=Genetic entropy and simple organisms: If genetic entropy is true, why do bacteria still exist? − |author=Robert Carter − |publisher=Creation Ministries International − |url=http://creation.com/genetic-entropy-and-simple-organisms − |accessdate=2012-10-29}}</ref> − − Sanford's book ''Genetic Entropy and the Mystery of the Genome'' explains why human DNA is inexorably deteriorating at an alarming rate, thus cannot be millions of years old.<ref>[http://creation.com/john-sanford John Sanford - bio] at [[Creation Ministries International]]</ref>
