In spite of the observation made in this article, Darwin's way of thinking still can be valid after some modifications. If instead we apply concept of evolution rather to mind (the consciousness), we still can observe evolutionary creation, how life has been established from its simplest forms and then evolved to more complex ones. Rather than survival of the fittest we can observe creation of organisms which are capable of living in certain environments. Sort of competition between minds whose goal was to create organisms which can survive and thrive in certain conditions. The phases of 62 million years can be seen as times of re-introduction of organisms to the earth environment after partial distraction like ice-ages, volcanic eruptions and planet landmass shifting. <br /><br />By the way, when I look at some flowers or plants, I can't stop thinking what kind of artist must have been behind creation of that beauty.

Very good article, thanks.
For the sak...Hi Bogdan! Very good article, thanks.<br /><br />For the sake of turning some research into theory, we choose as the subject as the context. Works like here presented, still belong to speculations. <br /><br />Darwin's theory did a huge impact at his time, and we should not forget that.<br /><br />If you do not mind, I feel free to bring here fantastic poem of Wislawa Szymborska:<br /><br />Consolation<br /><br />Darwin.<br />They say he read novels to relax,<br />But only certain kinds:<br />nothing that ended unhappily.<br />If anything like that turned up,<br />enraged, he flung the book into the fire. <br /><br />True or not,<br />I’m ready to believe it.<br /><br />Scanning in his mind so many times and places,<br />he’d had enough of dying species,<br />the triumphs of the strong over the weak,<br />the endless struggles to survive,<br />all doomed sooner or later.<br />He’d earned the right to happy endings,<br />at least in fiction<br />with its diminutions.<br /><br />Hence the indispensable<br />silver lining,<br />the lovers reunited, the families reconciled,<br />the doubts dispelled, fidelity rewarded,<br />fortunes regained, treasures uncovered,<br />stiff-necked neighbors mending their ways,<br />good names restored, greed daunted,<br />old maids married off to worthy parsons,<br />troublemakers banished to other hemispheres,<br />forgers of documents tossed down the stairs, <br />seducers scurrying to the altar,<br />orphans sheltered, widows comforted,<br />pride humbled, wounds healed over,<br />prodigal sons summoned home,<br />cups of sorrow thrown into the ocean, <br />hankies drenched with tears of reconciliation,<br />general merriment and celebration,<br />and the dog Fido,<br />gone astray in the first chapter,<br />turns up barking gladly<br />in the last.<br /><br /><br />LOL, poet (artist) usually CONSIDERS, while scientist mainly JUDGES. Both approaches are eqaually valid, specially if we observe something from both angles.<br /><br />In my personal laboratory of the new world :)), DNA for a long ago belongs to the ad acta stuff. It is obsolete term, which can't offer much of the reasonable and of stuff that could offer a serious development.Branka Babićhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06488328331361484349noreply@blogger.com
