INTRODUCTION
This is a hypothetical debate between a Muslim and a Logician to demonstrate, compare and evaluate the arguments on the Theory of Evolution, focusing on random genetic mutations and natural selection.

I asked ChatGPT to be The Logician, “someone who evaluates arguments purely [based] on absolute logical principles and provides the resulting conclusions no matter what they are,” and had the following debate. I presented each point separately and asked ChatGPT to respond to them as The Logician. Then I combined all the exchanges with some minor edits for smooth transitions and compactness.

Let me know what you think.
