How did Charles Darwin develop his theory of evolution?

Answer 1

Charles Darwin was not qualified to make such theory, he was a naturalist and as such had a bias against the involvement of supernatural forces thus rendering his conclusions scientifically invalid. His education consisted of parts of the subjects of medicine, taxidermy, plant taxonomy, theology, geology, and few other things that related to the nature of his claims. his assumptions were based off observations he witnessed on the Galapagos Islands and influenced by a book he read on the voyage to the islands. The book stated that a river had carved away at a landscape to form a valley, Darwin believed that other things in the world were formed this way when he saw that there were finches on the islands he saw that they were different from the ones he had known at his home, he also observed that they changed from island to island. The conclusion he drew from this is that these birds must have shared a common ancestor and over time became similar creatures. His reasoning was influenced by the book because he believed that time was "carving" certain creatures into different ones through "evolution" he decided that if finches evolved this was then why not all creatures? The fundamental flaw in his conclusion is that he didn't have the instruments of the modern world and thus couldn't come to the reality that the finches were adaptations of the same creature, because they had lived on the Galapagos Islands for a long time they "adapted" to life on the islands instead of the mainland. Darwin himself said "if science should prove me wrong than i am wrong" unfortunately evolution's claims violate several laws of physics, however many people refuse to accept this truth because they simply wish to remove God from life. Darwin studied theology and was actually trained to be a pastor he stated that in no way was his theory meant to usurp the supernatural authority of God, how he was trained to be a pastor AND a naturalist i really don't know.
