Christianity has no problem with literal creaiton and lack of perfection at the same time. The fall of man descibed in early Genesis documents the biological 'cursing' of both man and his land due to sin.
​
Christianity is a little yin/yang in that sense. Strength from weakenss via the cross of Christ is one of the most central, confounding and yet profound features of Christianity.
​
I am unaware of the importance/existance of 'the fall' in Islam.

What is needed to work! Organisms are machines. Mutated organisms that still work can pass their genes on. Ones that don't can't. As simple as that.
