Evolutionists have "mechanics". Mutations happen as a result of copy errors in DNA. Natural Selection happens when something dies before it can reproduce.
One thing that I can say about those of you subscribe to Evolution as the explanation of our existance - you have immense faith. Considering that 400 million years ago the planet was completely covered in ice in a run away ice age and even at the equator the ice on the oceans was 18 feet thick. The only life that survived was some algea that recieved just enough sunlight through the thick but unusally transparent equatorial ice. So in just 400 million years, life has successfully mutated from algea to humans who build space shuttles and Cray computers is quite amazing.
Sure, saying that a devine creator was responsible for everything sounds highly simplistic compared to the endless explanation of the progression of evolution. But it is more plausible considering the mathmatical odds of so many beneficial mutations happening in a row and not being snowed under by all of the non beneficial mutations that happened along with them.
Besides the shear number of beneficial mutations that is required to get from algea to an intellegent human being is uncalcuable. Consider that the 30,000 genes in a human alone are multifunctional and not singular in purpose, you still need the creation of raw information in the DNA to get from photosynthesis to the ability to visulize in 3D. The fact that each gene performs multiple functions in protein creation means that the DNA mechinism is highly structured and organized itself, the same as today's software is the result of intellegent design.
Software mutation results in computer crashes, not new software applications being created. The complexity of DNA exceeds the most complex software application and the human brain is far more complex than any super computer. Nobody would ever say that computers came about by chance and mutation. The are intellegently designed.
