| Summary | "Bedenkingen tegen de Leer van Darwin" by Antoine Charles Reuther is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. The work critiques Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, arguing against the mechanisms of natural selection and species adaptation as foundational explanations for the diversity of life, proposing alternative ideas based on philosophical considerations regarding existence and morality. The opening of the text presents the author's concerns regarding Darwin's theories, outlining arguments against the feasibility of species evolving from one to another and questioning the concept of natural selection as a reliable mechanism for such changes. It emphasizes that traits of species might not be as adaptable to their environments as suggested, and insists that the historical development of species is more complex and perhaps mechanically influenced rather than solely driven by random evolutionary processes. Reuther posits that many phenomena in nature and society do not align with Darwinian principles and introduces a more deterministic view regarding life's progression, aiming to challenge and stimulate debate on established biological theories of the time.
