Evolution

Evolution by means of Natural Selection is a process in which, over many generations a species of creatures gradually changes into others. The theory was created by British naturalist Charles Robert Darwin. Evolution by means of natural selection works as individuals with favourable traits towards survival in a praticular enviroment (both in terms of Climate, competition from other species, predators, prey and changes in said factors) are more like reproduce and spread their genes (and traits) to other individuals in the next generation while thoughs without said traits are less likely to reproduce, gradually building up traits and changing the individuals of the population of said species over thousands to millions of years. Natural selection is next to universally agreed upon by the Scientific community and is backed up by mountains of mutually supporting evidence. Never the less, outside the Scientific Community, there are large numbers of Religious fundamentalists who dissmiss evolution in favour of Bronze agre Creation mythology. These people (known as creationists) are a common type of Troll that comes to SD.net.
