Darwin as Critical Thinker 
Introduction 
	Critical thinking is the ability to think about what to do or what to believe logically and rationally. The opportunity to participate in analytical and critical thought is included. Someone with critical thinking ability can do the following: consider the logical relations between ideas. Critical thinking is the way of thinking about any subject, material, or issue in which the thinker enhances the consistency of his or her thinking by analyzing, reviewing, and reconstructing it skillfully. Self-directed, self-disciplined, self-monitored, and self-corrective thought is critical thinking. In the category of good critical thinker, Charles Darwin can be named as one of the most critical thinkers who idealized the process of human evolution on the bases of science. There is a great approach in his thinking which he could apply to restructure the thoughts of biological evolution of life on the planet (Critical Thinking, 2017).
Darwin as the Thinker 
	At first, it is significant to note here that Darwin can be categorized as the critical thinker due to his ability to see beyond the established beliefs and perceptions about the origin of life in the world. Unlike the divine theories which were dominant before he gave his subtle opinion, he presented a well calculated and scientifically driven theory of natural selection (Critical Thinking, 2017). The divine structure of origin of life was based on the creation of the world by God. Nature, animals and human beings all were subjected to be a part of God’s design and He used them to make earth as the finest place to live. He created humans to ensure that they govern the planet and stand top in the list of food chain (Critical Thinking, 2017).
	However, as a critical thinker, Darwin challenged this theory and he refuted the divine perception by making some valuable perceptions over science.
