Why Evolution is wrong

I don't actually believe evolution is incorrect, but the institution for creation research is convinced that some divine being willed us into existence. By analyzing the data from a scientific study on the evolution of eukaryotic cells, the ICR came to the conclusion that evolution was impossible because there is such a small chance for things to happen (like the original engulfing of a mitochondria by another cell and the relationship that formed between them.) What they don't take into account is that conditions could have existed in the past that do not exist today; this includes lifeforms, weather patterns, the chemical composition of the atmosphere and landmasses, and anything else that existed then, but does not now. Just because a result cant be repeated under different circumstances does not make it wrong.
