Pierre Grasse stated the following: "Some contemporary [[biology|biologists]], as soon as they observe a [[mutation]], talk about [[theory of evolution|evolution]]. They are implicitly supporting the following syllogism: mutations are the only evolutionary variations, all living beings undergo mutations, therefore all living beings evolve....No matter how numerous they may be, mutations do not produce any kind of evolution." Grasse pointed out that bacteria which are the subject of study of many geneticists and molecular biologists and are organisms which produce the most mutants are considered to have "stabilized a billion years ago!".<ref>[http://www.veritas-ucsb.org/library/origins/quotes/mutations.html Pierre Grasse regarding mutations]</ref> Grasse  regards the "unceasing mutations" to be "merely hereditary fluctuations around a median position; a swing to the right, a swing to the left, but no final evolutionary effect."<ref>[http://www.veritas-ucsb.org/library/origins/quotes/mutations.html Pierre Grasse regarding mutations]</ref>
