Also Darwins contribution to the theory was minimal at best, he’s just used as a figurehead because he wrote down the status quo slightly sooner than anyone else.
I did just learn this today (oddly enough, in the very first page of Origin of Species). [edit: I knew that there was at least one other person developing the theory concurrently, but I didn’t know that Darwin was just a few incremental steps beyond the general consensus]
It’s only possible to demonstrate evolution in finely tuned environments specifically designed to show it off (like a computer program for example) so I don’t think you’ll be able to demonstrate it like that.
Over the past few hours I’ve been discussing some ideas with others and mostly come to this conclusion. It would definitely be a hard problem, although I’d enjoy the problem enough to work at it for a while.
