And in modern science it is proved by DNA errors during replication known as point mutations which are degenerative.
I think we would be in much greater danger had we 'not' evolved.

Yeah, but don't they say that is going to be a long time from now?

Originally posted by RJHindsNo reason at all, but your question was "What are the dangers of evolution?". Extinction is part of evolution. However, if there were no such thing as evolution and your creationist view were right then extinctions would still be possible.

Originally posted by DeepThoughtYes, but if the creationist's view is right there is also a way out of extinction through the Son of God.
