If Darwin were to examine the evidence today using modern science, would his conclusions be the same? Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species, published over 150 years ago, is considered one of history’s most influential books and continues to serve as the foundation of thought for evolutionary biology. Since Darwin’s time, however, new fields of science have immerged that simply give us better answers to the question of origins. With a Ph.D. in cell and developmental biology from Harvard University, Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson is uniquely qualified to investigate what genetics reveal about origins. The Origins Puzzle Comes Together If the science surrounding origins were a puzzle, Darwin would have had fewer than 15% of the pieces to work with when he developed his theory of evolution. We now have a much greater percentage of the pieces because of modern scientific research. As Dr. Jeanson puts the new pieces together, a whole new picture emerges, giving us a testable, predictive model to explain the origin of species. A New Scientific Revolution Begins Darwin’s theory of evolution may be one of science’s “sacred cows,” but genetics research is proving it wrong. Changing an entrenched narrative, even if it’s wrong, is no easy task. Replacing Darwin asks you to consider the possibility that, based on genetics research, our origins are more easily understood in the context of . . . In the beginning . . . God, with the timeline found in the biblical narrative of Genesis. There is a better answer to the origins debate than what we have been led to believe. Let the revolution begin! About the Author Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson is a scientist and a scholar, trained in one of the most prestigious universities in the world. He earned his B.S. in Molecular Biology and Bioinformatics from the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and his PhD in Cell and Developmental Biology from Harvard University. As an undergraduate, he researched the molecular control of photosynthesis, and his graduate work involved investigating the molecular and physiological control of adult blood stem cells. His findings have been presented at regional and national conferences and have been published in peer-reviewed journals, such as Blood, Nature, and Cell. Since 2009, he has been actively researching the origin of species, both at the Institute for Creation Research and at Answers in Genesis.

In 1831 British naturalist Charles Darwin joined a five-year expedition on the ship HMS Beagle. As the crew explored the southern hemisphere, Darwin took extensive notes on the organisms he encountered and how they differed from the species back home in England. He began to formulate ideas about the effect of natural selection on the evolution of species over time. The evidence he gathered, especially finch specimens collected from South America and the Galápagos Islands, provided further proof for his theory. In 1859, more than twenty years later, Darwin published his research—and sparked a heated debate. Misunderstood by theologians and misappropriated by eugenicists, it would be years before Darwin's controversial theory gained widespread acceptance in the scientific community. This is an unabridged version of Charles Darwin's fundamental text on evolutionary biology.

An excerpt from the beginning of Chapter I. -- ITS MEANING. We must not confuse the Darwinian theory with Evolution. It is a part of that larger whole. Evolution is the name for the idea of the unity and continuity of phenomena. The evolutionist regards all the phenomena of the universe as natural, and does not believe in the intervention of the supernatural. To him there never is, never has been, and to never will be, any break in the series of events. The evolutionist pure and simple does not recognise any hiatus between man and other animals, between the animal and the plant, between the living and the non-living. In this wide sense I cannot, strange as this may seem, call Charles Darwin an evolutionist. For in the "Origin of Species " he uses one phrase, not so far as I know contradicted or modified in more recently published utterances, that may fairly be quoted as evidence of his belief in the supernatural origin of life. It is the well-known sentence: "There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers. having been originally breathed by the Creator into a few forms or into one." Darwin's great work was done in relation to living things. His two remarkable theories of Natural Selection and Sexual Selection have bearing only on plants and animals. Darwin's hypotheses had to do with the evolution of these two highest forms of matter known to us. They havi nothing to do with the question of the origin of life, or the first formation of organic bodies. In dealing with his ideas, we must start, as he started, with life as existing on the earth. Organic matter is given. The question is how, organic or living matter once in being, the many diverse forms of plants and animals have arisen....
