Darwin was the first to come out with the idea of Evolution.

Ummm. Not quite correct. Evolution is expressed in the Hindic Vedas which originated many thousands of years ago.

Ahem - we could have a discussion about that...

Creation is very explicitly described in the Puranas and mentioned clearly in the Bhagavad Gita. Evolution of species is definitely not the method explained in the Vedas. According the the Vedic teachings, what evolves in the soul, through transmigration, as the soul is given a chance to inhabit a variety of bodies, until reaching the human form. Then, if the soul uses the increased opportunity in the human form to search out God, he will again get a human form until he fully surrenderes his will with God's in love.

But, if the soul rejects the opportunity afforded by the human form of life and lives an animal-like existence (living just for the satisfaction of the senses and mind), he will be de-volved into a lower type of life form. IOW, the soul will then get born into a lower type of body.

It states in the Puranas very clearly how creation takes place, and evolution is not the method.
