His Ideas Are a Linchpin of Modern Science

Charles Darwin is centrally important in the development of scientific and humanist ideas because he first made people aware of their place in the evolutionary process when the most powerful and intelligent form of life discovered how humanity had evolved.
The theory of evolution by natural selection was first put forward by Darwin in On the Origin of Species, published in 1859, and his theory is still generally accepted as the Best available explanation of the way life on this planet developed.

I concur, Darwin, Volta or Schrodinger, all great. The newly founded liberal science of "lets make up random shit and see what these gullible losers believe then go with it" seems apropos.

That idiot rant didn't seem to have any point at all.

Sorry, but Darwin's evolution theory doesn't address how life started. ....

Haha, you pull out this irrelevant turd in literally every evolution thread.

DARWIN'S PREDICTIONS​

Ahead of his time is putting it moderately for Charles Darwin. The father of evolution had conjectures that were only proved, or greatly substantiated, decades after his death in 1882, in some cases not until recently.
Today, evidence that Unequivocally supports his theory of evolution by natural selection, as well as other surmises he had, comes from an array of scientific disciplines, including paleontology, geology, biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and, most recently, evolutionary developmental biology, or "evo devo."
"The notion that all these lines of evidence could converge and give a common answer to the question of where we came from is truly powerful," says Brown University biologist Kenneth Miller. "This is the reason why scientific support for the theory of evolution is so overwhelming." Here, bone up on Darwin's most prophetic ideas.—Peter Tyson


The mechanism—whatever it is—is Natural, Not supernatural.

Darwin held off on publishing his theory for 20 years, until forced to by fellow naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace, who had independently come up with the same idea.

One of the reasons for Darwin's delay was he knew what a shock his theory would represent to Christians, including his beloved wife Emma, who believed that God had created all living things, whole and independent of all others. Darwin didn't hold this view.
His friend, the biologist T. H. Huxley, agreed. "As a natural process of the same character as the development of a tree from its seed, or of a fowl from its egg," Huxley wrote, "evolution excludes creation and all other kinds of supernatural intervention." Of course, many people around the world still believe in a divine instrument of creation.""

It doesn’t know.

How does he think life started? I love alternate theories.

 

[mak2]

I am not an atheist. I believe evolution is how God did it.

He thinks his favorite little god did it.

Scientist's have never observed a species evolving into a different species in order to validate the quack theory of evolution. ....

And there you have it.

Well, that's a lie. They actually have.

You guys ever notice that the people who object to evolution the most seem to know the least about it?

think. Millions and millions of years.

 

[Sunni Man]

Well, that's a lie. They actually have.

Please post your evidence. ...

Science doesn't need to address that. Moon landings and vaccines weren't created by religion.
