no mysteries in this world more fascinating and complex than the question of who came from the people.Passion about the problem simmer for centuries.Since the life of our ancestors religion played a central role, it has long been the only version of the divine origin of man.In those years, scientists have not dared to public protests against this statement, because for this it was easy to get to the fire.
years passed, the Church's role in people's daily lives gradually.There were all new theories whose authors tried to explain where there was a man.However, most of the original theory anyway "revolved" around the divine origin of Homo sapiens.Scientists have speculated that it could have come from some ancient ancestors, the Giants, and even the people who once lived in the mythical Atlantis.
The problem was that none of the authors could not provide any proof of his version of the origin of humans.In short, the question of who came from the people, remained a mystery for decades.
It was not until as long as Charles Darwin made his famous voyage aboard the "Beagle".During all his travels he collected herbarium and a collection of animals and insects, which are encountered in its path.Eventually, he began to notice the amazing regularity in the appearance and structure of various organisms.It was then that there was a famous work dedicated to the beaks of finches living on the Galapagos Islands.Darwin noticed continuity which helped to explain to him there was a man from whom.
scientists noticed that the appearance of a bird's beak varies depending on the environmental conditions and supply conditions.Darwin suggested that beak might change as a result of long-term process, which he called evolution (gradual change).From the beginning, the theory had many enemies, but only evolutionary theory could explain clearly, from whom there was a man.Scientists say that our ancestors were monkeys ...!However, it is a revolutionary statement and was taken extremely hostile not only supporters of the Church, but also scientists.
However, with the passage of time and the evolution of paleontology in the light began to appear more and more evidence in the form of fossilized remains.By studying them, many scientists began to penetrate the ideas of Darwinism.Especially in Darwin perfect fit works of Lamarck and other naturalists, who worked on the creation of the classification of animals.
scientists of the time were perplexed by the "step" in the animal kingdom of the world, because they did not know where to put a man: by all accounts, he was like the great apes, but in those days it could not be attributed to the "family" monkeys.The appearance of Darwin's theory perfectly explain all these ambiguities and get rid of biologists from having rights in the issuance separate kingdom, as demanded by creationists.
Thus, the question of what happened from a man no longer stood.Darwin's theory began to introduce in schools, and almost all scientists agree with its basic provisions.Of course, like most assumptions, this famous theory has its flaws.However it is necessary to stress once again that Darwin's theory can only explain the origin of the diversity of species that exist on our planet today.
