Charles Darwin's Theory Of Natural Selection

Charles Darwin should not receive the award for his work on natural selection. His crazy theories should not be excepted by the Royal Society because they go against religion and will make our high class society a laughing stock. Darwin's Definition of natural selection is "any characteristic of an individual that allows it to survive to produce more offspring will eventually appear in every individual of the species, simply because those members will have more offspring." Natural selection can never extend outside of the DNA limit. DNA cannot be changed into a new species by natural selection. However a process called selective breeding can be done with flowers, fruits, and vegetables. This process has been done by many ancient civilizations …show more content…

If natural selection were true, humans in the tropics would have lighter colored reflective skin to help them keep cool, but they don't. They have darker and blacker skin, just the opposite of what Darwin and the theory of natural selection would predict. If natural selection were true humans at northern latitudes would have black skin, but they have white skin instead, you would expect the people who live in Northern areas of the world to have skin that is halfway between white and black so they can retain the heat they need to stay warm. The people from Russia and the Nordic countries have white skin, blood hair and blue eyes. This is the opposite of what one would predict if natural selection controlled skin color. Dark-skinned people have always lived near the Equator, not white-skinned people, even though the dark skin is more uncomfortable in the hot, sunny climate. Black skin absorbs the heat from the sun's rays unlike that of people who have white skin because it reflects it. Humans show no sign of natural selection based on the environment. The theory of natural selection is wrong because it cannot create something in the DNA that wasn't there in the …show more content…

This independent force, of course, that Darwin refers to and continues to talk lowly of is our one and only, our undeniable creator the lord. If this theory is accepted by our great Royal Society it would have a huge impact on how science will be viewed. They will start to call us non believers, it will make people question if there really is a God, there will be chaos. Anyone who is not strong in their religious beliefs would be easily swayed to believe he or she is not the product of a higher being and just a plain organism that exists on this planet for no reason other than to protect and preserve nature. This could also cause large uproars in the church. There are a lot of religions that try to turn people on to spirituality, so it would be a devastating and a disastrous thing to have to report that some scientist came along and tried to convince a bunch of people otherwise. According to Darwin’s idiotic theory, man acts on instincts through nature and not through his own free will. I know from experience, that people do not like to think they aren’t in control of their own
