I don't think Darwin ever knew anything about genetics. Did we even know about genetics when he came up with the theory of natural selection? Or did we even have the tools necessary to see genes or chromosomes?
All Darwin said was that creatures change over time and that the creatures that change to best suit their environment survive and thrive while those who aren't as well suited die off. That's it. Whatever you want to call that process is fine with me, but most intelligent people call it evolution.
