I hate it when the first words in an essay are an obvious lie.
Darwin himself was not sure he had produced one, and for many decades every competent evolutionary biologist has known that he did not.
Darwin wasn't sure that his theory on the development of species wouldn't be rejected as previous theories had been. It's been corrected and added upon as our scientific knowledge has grown, but the underlying theory, that organisims speciate over time in response to environmental pressures, remains largely intact.
And the rest of this article plays the standard, "Let's bandy about famous names and take their quotes out of context" game.
Exactly. What kind of idiot would do an article criticizing the state of the fossil record, mention Mayr and Gould, and use neither the words "allopatric speciation" or "punctuated equilibrium"? Your typical ignorant creationist idiot, that what kind of idiot.
Dawkins was right, "It is absolutely safe to say that, if you meet somebody who claims not to believe in evolution, that person is ignorant, stupid, or insane ...."
