So, how do you get large changes in an organism through random mutations assuming non-utilitarian mutations don't ultimately survive?


Because the useful ones survive.... Duh.

Sure you can't go from a "non-seeing organism" to a "seeing one" with one mutation.. but with one mutation you can have one develop very limited and minute form of vision. And believe me, it's easier to frick a girl if you can find them and also to grab a bite to eat afterwards... so it would be a mutation that would probably be useful and carry on. And over time mutate eventually into different forms of eyes. In areas where it is so dark you can't see... that mutation may not live on... which has been witnessed with animals in caves or in the deepest parts of the ocean. They've developed other sensory abilities...

This seems more like a statement of faith than an actual scientific claim. Going from no vision to any sort of vision with one mutation isn't a rational claim, IMO.

Here's a living transitional fossil.. Blind Mexican cave fish... used to have eyes, kinda still does... working towards not having them anymore. Boom ... Evolution.
