The Evolution of Evolution and Origin of Everything

While Darwin's Theory covers evolution it has undergone a pretty extensive evolution itself.  Other supporting ideas have been added to prop his concept up.  His ideas are slight tweaks on ancient Greek teachings by Aristotle, Anaximander, Pliny, ect.  A theory is subject to being disproven, but when evolution hits a roadblock it just expands the timeline.  A complete look at a Historical Timeline can show us how the theory changed over time to become what it is today. In fact, Darwin's Theory is what helps scientists determine the age of the Earth while Darwin's theory(today's version) points to the age of the Earth as a piece of evidence supporting it.  It is called circular reasoning. The most important thing you need to understand is the origin of the Earth and Evolution are not science.  By their own admission it is impossible to observe them.  These ideas are a belief system no different from a religious belief in a deity creating things.  What really has to make you scratch your head is when a religious head tells its scientists what science it will pursue.

And to tell the truth, rather than speaking about the theory of evolution, it is more accurate to speak of the theories of evolution. The use of the plural is required here—in part because of the diversity of explanations regarding the mechanism of evolution, and in part because of the diversity of philosophies involved. -Pope John Paul ii 

Just in case you dont remember what the theories stated, watch these short videos.

The theories most likely go back further(Babylon), but we will start here.

600* BC
Anaximander proposes that early humans used to look like other animals, and humans came from fish(this concept is still USED TODAY!) video above

300* BC
Aristotle develops Spontaneous Generation (beginning of universe from nothing) and Scala Naturae

200* BC
Epicurus develops his idea that the Universe began by chance. Sounds similar to the "Big Bang"

Oct 05-15 1582
 Pope Gregory changes the calendar system in October to more closely mirror the sun from the Julian(Julius Caesar) to the Gregorian to realign Easter(based on the pagan Ishtar festival and always on a Sunday) with the spring equinox(solar event) and separate it from the Jewish Passover(which moves and is based on lunar cycles)

1752
(Sep.02 overnight switched to Sep.14) England and the New World(Future US) colonies switched over to the Gregorian calendar. This year the English switched their new year from March 25(Lady Day) to Jan. 1.

1809
 Lamarck develops the "Use and Disuse" and "Lamarkian Inheritance"

1830
 Charles Lyell uses the term "missing link" in "Elements of Geology".  He also developed the concept of a slowly changing Earth.  He is later buried in Westminster Abbey.

1859
 Darwin's theory in "On the Origin of Species" is built on five principles evolution(Aristotle), common descent(Anaximander), gradual evolution, speciation and natural selection. Claims the Earth is 300m years old. Darwin writes a book called "ORIGIN of Species" and doesnt mention the ORIGIN...

Darwins tree of life sketch from 1837

1859
Spontaneous Generation is disproved by Pasteur and Tyndall

1862
William Thomson(aka "Lord Kelvin" the guy from the Kelvin temperature scale) claims the Earth is 20m-400m years old. 

1866
Thomson revised his theory of Earth to 100m years old

1874
 Ernst Haeckel creates "Haeckels Evolution of Man" in Germany. He illustrates the "Pedigree of Man" and inserts "missing links" to make the concept work. He also developed the debunked idea of the embryos that was used in text books editions as late as 2003, and if you know anything about text books they get used for quite a while. Video at top still using this idea

debunked but still used

These fakes used up through 2003

1883
Weismann disproves Lamarck's theories

1891
Java man(currently Homo Erectus) discovered by Eugene Dubois when he found two bones in two different locations while on a mission to find the "missing link".

1895
John Perry(assistant to Thomson) claimed the Earth was 2-3b years old

1897
Thomson recalculates(using actual math) and says the earth is 20m-40m years old

1912
Piltdown Man discovered with a Jesuit Priest on the team when they find two partial bones.

Nebraska Man confirmed to be false.

1929
Peking Man found in China based on a few teeth and skull fragments in a cave.

1932
The Big Bang Theory was published in Popular Science

1933
Lemaitre published a more detailed and refined version of this theory

1937
Peking Man site abandoned due to Japanese invasion.  Would be restarted after WW2

1938
The "extinct for 66 MILLION YEARS" Coelacnath is discovered...alive. Was also found in 2007.

1941
Peking Man bones shipped to US but they were lost in transit(pre tracking numbers and Amazon)

1949
"the big bang" coined on BBC radio by Fred Hoyle.

1949
H E Suess claims the Earth is 4b-5b years old(using radioactive isotopes)

1951
Pope Pius Xii said the BBT validated Catholicism in Humani Generis

1953
Watson and Crick discover DNA

1953
Piltdown Man was found to be a forgery from a human skull and ape jaw

1955
Einstein dies

1958
Crick develops the "Sequence Hypothesis"

1960
Ramapithecus thought to be human ancestor. It is just an orangutan.

1966
Lemaitre dies

1960s
Harry Whittington discovers the full impact of the "Cambrian explosion"

1974
Lucy found by Donald Johanson from "several hundred bone piece fossils making up 40% of a skeleton". They can tell you about what Lucy ate, and where Lucy lived all from the fossilized bone fragments below!

1987
UNESCO named Peking Man site world heritage site

1996
Pope John Paul ii told the Pontifical Academy "New knowledge has led to the recognition of the theory of evolution as more than hypothesis."

2009
New dig starts at Peking Man site. No complete skeletons found at site in over 100 years of digging.

2009
"Charles Darwin's 'tree of life', which shows how species are related through evolutionary history, is wrong and needs to be replaced, according to leading scientists."
"We have no evidence at all that the tree of life is a reality,' Eric Bapteste"

2015
A new island forms before our eyes(5min Nasa video) and it didnt take millions of years.  It didnt even take one.  It isnt the only island to have formed in modern history.
