What a schmuck. Darwin did not plagarize or rip off any part of that theory. If this idiot had ever read any of Darwin's work, he'd know this. Origin of Species was in the works for decades before it was published. Take a look at Darwin's notes that he wrote while on The Beagle. Any idiot will see that the theory of evolution was being formulated long before Wallace woke up to it.

Um, he did not steal it from Wallace. He waited so long to publish that somebody else, Wallace, worked out the rudiments of descent by modification. SOme colleagues noticed the similarities, and Wallace agreed that Darwin should get to publish first after he saw how much more fleshed out and potent his research was.
