Darwin's expedition was funded by the Rothchilds. Not only that, how he came to his conclusions was absurd.
Natural adaptation, not evolution is how the flightless birds came about. Adaptation is a subtractive process in which genes break that contribute to different features, such as short legs in dogs. It isn't because of something new, it's because the genes that cause a dog to grow longer legs are broken and unexpressed.
Bull dogs are the ultimate example of that. They're on the verge of going extinct due to breathing problems but nothing can really be done for them short of mixing in other dog breeds because bulldogs are nearly a genetic dead end with no additional room for adaptation.
Darwin's Evolution would be a great future episode!
