What if the crew of the HMS Beagle never got off the first island they visited alive? Better yet, what if the natives let Darwin smoke or taste a bit of their good stuff?

It would not be any different. But if the Incas had beaten Pisaro back, then it would be different.

Hawaii is the 50th state of the United States of America and is situated almost at the hub of the North Pacific Ocean point that makes from Hawaii an excellent selection for an amazing holiday, with hotelbye you'll discover more. The normal beauty of the islands remains among Hawaii's best assets. One of the very fascinating places to see in Hawaii is Volcanoes National Park. This package supplies a unique, close-up look at an energetic volcano and the new landscape made by a volcano. Hot lava runs down the mountain side, and dried lava covers the trail, featuring its unstoppable force. Another place worth visit is the memorial Visitors Center, a center that provides historical information on the Harbor and the Japanese assault and the Battleship USS Missouri.

I don't think the world would be that different. Theories pertaining to evolution were being contemplated by at least one other prominent academic during that time; Darwin just published his book first. Good thing, too.

No, not really.
This is like saying that if the voyage that had gone before had not hit a reef then we would have had Phillip's theory of Adaptation.
In religion only the chosen prophets get to know the 'truth'
In science anyone can do it. All they have to do is look. If Darwin had not done it someone else would have.

Wasn't there another scientist working on pretty much the same theory at the time? I think Darwin just got his published first.

No, Darwin wasn't the only one who understood evolution.

The ideas and evidence were already around. It would have only delayed it by a few years at the most.

Well, the world would be completely oblivious to the truth for one thing...
