Charles Darwin was an important contributor to science. Darwin’s idea of Natural Selection was only part of his theories. In modern era his theories are considered, as one of the greatest psychological and societal revolution. These theories have extremely changed our way of thinking about science, religion, philosophy and modern world. According to the Darwin’s theory of evolution every new organism in the universe is slightly different from its parents. These differences may be sometimes helpful for the youngster and sometime these differences are not very advantageous. For the survival every organism has to fight for food and copulate. So those parents who have helpful traits produce more offspring, and those parents who have not helpful

This example was what Darwin would consider evolution by natural selection. Charles Darwin believed that new species were created through acts of evolution. He believed that somehow all species are connected because of evolution. What Darwin tried to prove was, life here on Earth was the result of many years of adapting to the changing environment. This brought up an explanation of how certain species can only live in certain climates to be able to survive. It also explains the color of your skin and where you migrated from and how plants can effectively grow. Many people have different skin tones and under Darwin’s beliefs it’s all based on where you come from or …show more content…
It is evident that one generation passes away, and another generation comes; but the earth abides forever.... That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of which it may be said, "See, this is new"? It has already been in ancient times before us. And yet, for all that, we may live in a special time. We may live in the strangest, most thoroughly different moment since human beings took up farming, 10,000 years ago, and time more or less commenced. Since then time has flowed in one direction, which we have taken to be progress. At first the momentum was gradual, almost imperceptible, checked by wars and the Dark Ages and plagues and taboos; but in recent centuries it has accelerated, the curve of every graph steepening like the Himalayas rising from the Asian steppe. We have climbed quite high. Of course, fifty years ago one could have said the same thing, and fifty years before that, and fifty years before that. But in each case it would have been premature. We've increased the population fourfold in that 150 years; the amount of food we grow has gone up faster still; the size of our economy has quite simply
