bad mutations tend to hide in a population, so they build up over time, increasing the chances that a new organism won't be "fit" (when the mutations can't hide behind the original gene. The probability of this is called genetic load)
So, does mutation-selection, a.k.a Neodarwinism, come up with fitter creatures to replace the old ones? If so, how? If not, why do schools say it does? (It sounds like the evolution the schools teach us.)
