New information is generated spontaneously by mutation and recombination. The new combinations that are successful survive and contribute in subsequent generations.
Evolution's mutation mechanism does not explain how growth of a genome is possible. How can point mutations create new chromosomes or lengthen a strand of DNA?
All breeds of dog can still mate with one another. People have not seen any increase in dog's DNA, but have simply selected different genes from the existing dog gene pool to create the different breeds.

Hypothesis become theory when the scientist community test some idea by using conventional scientific methods and confirming the results as positive. However, no matter how many studies had been made and how many experiments but none has given the positive results in favour of fictitious theory of evolution by natural selection.
Trust me the day scientists would discover an authentic evidence in favour of evolution, all atheist would be dancing on the streets. However, theory of evolution by natural selection is an atheist delusion because they are trying to prove something, which is not part of nature.
