Lamarck & Darwin are BOTH WRONG---
"Lamarck was the first biologist to propose a mechanism for evolution. He proposed that organisms acquired features as they needed them. A giraffe would require a long neck because it strove to eat leaves high up in the trees, and birds that did not like swimming, but collected food in shallow water, would develop long legs and become waders. Lamarck, at times, ascribed the process of evolution to some inner mystical property of life.
Darwin, on the other hand, proposed the mechanism of natural selection as an evolutionary mechanism more acceptable to biologists.
The basic difference between Lamarckism and Darwinism is that Lamarck proposed that adaptations were acquired because organisms needed them, whereas Darwinism states that the adaptations developed by chance through mutations and selection takes place by natural selection. In a sense, natural selection becomes the driving force for change." AmazingDiscoveries

And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth,
which the
waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind,
and every winged fowl after
his kind:
and God saw that it was good.
