Does everyone like Charles Darwin and his work?

No. Most people do - the cast majority of people accept the principle he expounded in On the Origin of Species. A small minority of people, mainly fundamentalist Christians, deny the theory of evolution and thus are opposed to Darwin.

What rewards are currently on offer for proof of evolution?

Answer 1There appear to be three different offers currently on the table from different people or groups.1. Young-earth creationist Kent Hovind has an offer of $250,000 (allegedly for around 12 years) for proof of evolution.2. Creationist Adnan Oktar of Turkey, reported on one site as a 'rival of Richard Dawkins' has an offer of 10 trillion lira $7.5 million dollars for fossil evidence of evolution.3. An Old-earth Creationist site has an offer of $1,000,000 for proof of Abiogenesis (life from non-life).Relevant conditions are attached to all of these.Answer 2Although the first answer to this question is correct in that these groups do appear to offer rewards for proof of evolution or abiogenesis, there is no actual intent there to give the reward to anyone who offers actual evidence for the mentioned proofs. The conditions attached to these rewards, and the definitions of 'proof' and 'evidence' applied by those who offer them, and even the interpretation of the relevant explanatory models themselves, are carefully chosen so that no evidence or proof that complies with scientific tenets can ever be accepted and the rewards can never be awarded.


What is the proof for Darwin's theory of undirected mutation and incremental change over other theories of evolution - punctuated equilibrium?

Punctuated equilibrium is not ' a theory of evolution ' but well ensconced within modern evolutionary theory. Scientists look for evidence, not proof. The evidence suggests that punctuated equilibrium and incremental change are not mutually exclusive and both can occur in nature.
