The Random Mutation Generator site says:
"According to the experts, Darwinian evolution is driven by a combination of Random Mutation and *Natural Selection: * “Cumulative selection is the key to all our modern explanations of life. It strings a series of acceptably lucky events (random mutations) together in a nonrandom sequence so that, at the end of the sequence, the finished product carries the illusion of being very very lucky indeed.” -Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watchmaker"

This site allows you to make your own random mutations to see if random mutations can ever evolve into new organisms.
It is a fascinating site, which give references to new scientific information and ways of understandings cells that by pass Darwin altogether. And show that evolution cannot be a random event.

A very poor site. Biological evolution takes place in populations, that site only has a population of one. On that site all mutations are significant, in real life most mutations are deleterious. The English language is not a good model of protein evolution.

For a much better, although very simple, example have a look at the Weasel Applet.

This is not a full simulation of evolution, but it is enough to show the superiority of cumulative selection over random picking.

Actually, on that site all mutations are deleterious. That was the point the author of the site was trying to make. When evolutionists talk about mutations, they neglect the fact that the DNA for every part of that animal can mutate, thus all mutations will result in defective or dead offspring. That is why the irradiated fruit flies never mutated to anything good, but only to dead or defective fruit flies.

Your understanding of evolution is faulty. In metazoans the majority of mutations are neutral and have no effect. Most of the remainder are deleterious but not all. It is that small minority of beneficial mutations that are amplified by natural selection and spread through the population. For two examples in humans see A Rare Protein Mutation Offers New Hope for Heart Disease Patients and malariaPlasmodium falciparum.

You are wrong because protection against heart disease and malaria are both beneficial mutations. Beneficial mutations are rare, but they do exist. The crude simulation you linked to fails because among other errors if does not allow for beneficial mutations.
