What!?!
We see beneficial mutations real-time. Birds on islands loose a soft shelled nut food source, off spring with harder/larger beaks to crack the shells of a tougher nut soon appear...these things have been observed in nature all the time and over only a few generations.

Re: What!?!
Oh really...thats only over a few generations....over a millenium it could end up being a snout to eat ants instead of a stronger beak...sooo...who really cares about mutations when it's adaptation over millinia anyway....thank you for making my point with such precision.

incorrect
It not a simple matter off losses and gains...it's adaptation....it's changes in nature driving critters to adapt. You are looking for why a man changed from a monkey into a man genetically and overnight. It didn't happen that way...it was a very long slow process (long and slow from our perspective....the blink of an eye on a universal scale).

Re: Rocks and the Scaffold
Of special note is the presence of the invisible water 'neath it that we view through the magic of invisible air through the vehicle of magical photography...only the majesty of God can create invisible water, air and the magic of photography (I guess that blows your "natural" stone arch theory all to hell and back).
