Question

according to Darwin how are new species formed?

Answer 1

It doesn’t matter whatDarwin thought aboutspeciation because he was completely wrong about it, but I will answer your question anyway.Darwin thought that organisms had random variations in “numerous, successive, slight” steps. He said that the reason evolutionary steps don’t SEEM random isbecause the misfits died, leaving the mostfit, using the word “selection” to describe that subtractive filter. He considered speciation to be an extremely gradual process, an accumulation of random variations runthrough a filter of survival of the fittest.We now know that evolution has turned out to be just about the opposite of all of this, although until a few years ago they were still teaching Neo-Darwinism in schools. Roughly a third of all laypersonsstill believe that Neo-Darwinism is factual, but scientistsdon’t agree with Darwin at all.Evolution is fast, non-random and based on environmental needs. Cells monitor their environment, their homeostasis and foreign pathogens to assess needs. They also communicate heavily from cell to cell using informationon encoded molecules. They use this information to intelligently modify their DNA either by epigenetic controls orby editing the code.Scientists can induce evolution by changingthe environment of anorganism and simply watching the organism adapt intelligently. Once a genetic change is identified as a response to a stressed environment, we can reliably predict that a repeat of that same species in that same environmental change will result in the same genetic changes. No selection is needed and it certainly isn’t gradual or random.In an era of induced evolution and advanced genome sequencing methodology and databases, we have learned more about evolution in the past decade than in all scientific history combined. It is extremely important that you get your information sources from THIS decade or at least this century.It is also important to avoid religiously-biased material, sincethe subject matter supposedly impacts religious beliefs. For every serious scientific article thereare dozens of biased websites run by biblical apologists and dozens of deceitful articles written by Atheism advocates. Science isbest understood with no agendas attached, especially the zealotspushing a pro or anti religious slant.Darwin has been lionized as supposedly one of the greatest scientists of all time and falsely credited with being the discoverer of evolution whose ideas are thought to have been experimentally confirmed. There are shrines, parades and even holidays in his honor. Yet, he was almost entirely wrong.
