How is the Theory of Evolution different from previous theories?
Previous theories were not particularly scientific. These were that God created all the species simultaneously 6000 years ago. No evidence exists to support that idea. Another theory was that animals spontaneously form in rotting food, like maggots. This theory, too, was largely disproved by Louis Pasteur and others. Evolution was the first theory for the origin of species founded upon a broad survey of existing and prehistoric (fossil) life forms. After 150 years, it remains the only such theory in biology.
