Doubting Darwin: Considering Time and Natural Selection
Charles A. Clinton Ph.D.
Mr. Darwin made two mistakes about time. These were, and are, serious enough to discredit his theory of natural selection.
His first mistake was to write that nature granted time with an incomprehensibly lengthy past. The attached charlesdarwin1.pdf contains Doubting Darwin: Considering Time And Natural Selection. This essay demonstrates that time and the attributes associated with it (nature, structure, shape, measure, duration, etc) are human creations describable in terms of cultural continuity and cultural change.
Mr. Darwin's second mistake was to write that his theory of natural selection depended on time's presence. Nowhere in Western Civilization's literature on time is time's presence demonstrated. Rather, philosophers, theologians, mathematicians, and scientists have speculated about time, but have failed to demonstrate its presence. Without a credible demonstration of time as something other than human speculation, Mr. Darwin's theory of natural selection is dubious.
Darwin.pdf documents the cultural history of time in Western Civilization. The cultural history demonstrates that time and its attributes are human creations. Given this demonstration, and lacking any demonstration to the contrary, Mr. Darwin's theory of natural selection may be as fanciful as the cartoon introducing these four paragraphs.
