Part of Nature, or separate from Nature? Charles Darwin and Evolutionary Biology.
Manage episode 408379397 series 3380346
Speaker:- John Maindonald
Worship Leader:- Shirin Caldwell
Recorded 17 March 2024 @ Auckland Unitarian Church
Charles Darwin, who lived through the middle years of the 1800s, is familiar to most of us as the man who laid the foundations of the modern theory of evolution. His ideas have had dramatic continuing effects on our view of ourselves and of the world of which we are part. The idea that living things shared a common evolutionary heritage was not new. What was new was the mechanism that Darwin, along with Alfred Wallace who came up with very similar ideas at the same time, proposed. Darwin worked his arguments into a book of almost 500 pages that was widely read and finally carried the day in the world of science. It is a careful assembly of evidence, from animal breeding, from geology, and from the way that different life forms are distributed across different continents and islands.
