The theory of natural selection was formulated and researched and became preeminent WORLDWIDE among scientists long before public funding, and mostly (at that time) in the face of government opposition both in the USA and the USSR and elsewhere.

Yep, it has been around since the Garden of Eden, I was not arguing its antiquity.

You are arguing that the theory is dependent upon public funding, yet acknowledge that it became the preeminent theory among biologists long before public funding for it existed, and even in the face of government opposition.

Cognitive dissonance?
