“Darwin continually emphasized the difference between his two great and separate accomplishments: establishing the fact of evolution, and proposing a theory—natural selection—to explain the mechanism of evolution.”


Which museum has the skeletal remains of the humans with tails and gills? I’d like to go.

We still have tails, in the form of the coccyx, and I'm sure you're ready to pounce on any mention of embryonic "gill slits", but there they are. Cf. Mueller, Developmental Biology, Section 4.3 All Vertebrates Pass through a Highly Conserved Phylotypic Stage
