Charles Darwin's theory of biological evolution in The Origin of Spe- cies was published in 1859. The sparsity of physical evidence at that time made his theory of origins look possible, even reasonable. Since then, the physical evidence massively began to pile up, showing increasingly over time than his theory is not only disproven but that it is more like science fiction or fantasy than truth.He has been so identified with his theory that it is as if he is still em- bodied in it. However, it is now over 160 years old and has taken so many hits from the negative evidence that it is essentially brain-dead and cannot survive on its own. In spite of that, its many powerful and vocal supporters are keeping it going through artificial life support, so to speak. We will take a high-level view at why this is true and at what is coming to take its place.
