But, jumping genes have absolutely nothing to do with evolution.
Evolution is descent with modification combined with natural selection, and the example of the peppered moth with its jumping gene is exactly that.

Evolution explains the diversity of life by explaining how adaptation happens, namely descent with modification and natural selection.
You're still committing the sharpshooter fallacy. The sheer diversity of life itself shows that there are vast numbers of satisfactory targets.
