Evolution Korea<br><br>In the past, the Korean scientific community avoided working with creationists due to the fear of giving the movement more credence. The silence is no longer a viable option.<br><br>The STR has been fighting to eliminate evolution-related content from textbooks, including the discovery that the feathered Archaeopteryx was an ancestor bird. This is just one aspect of the way in which the development paradigm has changed.<br><br>What is Evolution?<br><br>The theory of evolution is a branch of science that explains the evolution of genetic traits over time. The theory is based upon the fact that living creatures adapt to their environment, which can result in variations in genes or even whole genomes. Over the course of many generations the changes could result in the creation of new species. The most popular theory of evolution is known as natural selection, which describes the process that allows people with advantages survive and reproduce more frequently than those with less favorable characteristics. This differing reproduction may be a catalyst to the emergence and evolution of new species.<br><br>The word "evolution" is derived from the Latin word for unrolling or revealing. However, the concept itself has a myriad of meanings over the years as it has taken shape in the sciences and other fields. Early evolutionists, such as Jean Baptiste de Lamarck and Erasmus Darwin (Charles's grandfather) believed that existing species transformed into other species in a certain way. Etienne Geoffroy St.Hilaire was Lamarck's embryologist disciple who invented the term "transmutation" to describe this view. Charles Lyell, who published the second volume of his Principles of Geology in 1833 challenged this notion and borrowed the term "evolution" from Geoffroy's student to describe the notion that existing species change into other species in a gradual and predictable manner.<br><br>Evolutionary biologists define it more recently as a process through which living things develop characteristics to increase their chances of survival or conceiving offspring. In time, genetic variation can cause a population develop new physical traits or biological functions. Such a shift in gene frequency is called natural selection, and is the primary driver behind evolutionary change. Non-genetic changes, such as an increase in muscle mass due to exercise or diet, can't be considered to be evolutionary because they aren't passed down to the next generation.<br><br>Despite the fact that evolution has withstood the test of time and thousands of scientific studies, creationists have seized on the idea that the theory is controversial to argue that it shouldn't be taught in schools. In South Korea, creationists have had a few wins in their fight to remove evolution from textbooks for high school and have also gotten rid of any mention of the evolutionary origins of humans and [https://www.dermandar.com/user/weekseason53/ ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ๋ฐ์นด๋ผ ๋ฌด๋ฃ] the Archaeopteryx feathered dinosaur believed to be an ancestral bird's ancestor.<br><br>Why is Evolution important to humanity?<br><br>Evolution explains how Earth and all living species evolved. It is also a fundamental part of biology and helps scientists comprehend how living organisms operate and [https://lovewiki.faith/wiki/5_People_You_Should_Be_Getting_To_Know_In_The_Evolution_Baccarat_Free_Experience_Industry ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ์ฌ์ดํธ] develop. Evolution also reveals the relationships between different species. Scientists study evolution to better comprehend nature and make important discoveries, such as the development of new medicines.<br><br>The evidence for biological evolution is overwhelming. There is no other scientific theory that can explain so many aspects of the universe and [https://bbs.sanesoft.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=559516 ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ์ฝ๋ฆฌ์] life on Earth and has been thoroughly tested and confirmed over many years. Many people, even some religious leaders, are in support of the scientific theory. It is essential to remember that evolutionary biology does not interfere with religious beliefs since it only addresses physical objects, events and processes.<br><br>Many religious people have come up with a way of reconciling evolution with their convictions. Certain Christians for instance, believe that God created everything through evolution, and that humans share a common ancestry to other animals.<br><br>It is important that science educators advocate for teaching evolution. In some countries, the opposition to evolution has been growing. In the United States, efforts to limit the teaching of evolution have made some progress in some states. In South Korea, a group called the Society for Textbook Revise, an offshoot from the Korea Association for Creation Research (KAC), is campaigning for textbooks to include content on the evolution of horses and their Avian ancestor Archaeopteryx.<br><br>It is crucial to keep in mind, however, that the evidence in support of evolution is overwhelming. The evidence for evolution comes from many sources, such as fossils, genetics, and the behavior of living creatures. Other scientists independently confirm the evidence.<br><br>The majority of scientists supports the theory of evolution. The reasons behind this belief vary. Scientists study evolution to discover practical solutions that can lead to the development of new treatments and other treatments, while others are driven by an interest in improving the quality of life for [http://www.lspandeng.com.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=459525 ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ์ฝ๋ฆฌ์] animals and plant species, generally for the benefit of humans. Some are simply curious, while others have a profound faith in God and are seeking to know how the universe works.<br><br>What is Creationism?<br><br>Creationists are those who believe that God created the universe and all that is in it. They also believe the Bible is God's word and should be taken literally. Many creationists are Christians, but not all. Creationists generally fall in one of two categories: Young Earth creationists (YEC) and old earth creationists (OEC).<br><br>The most common type of creationist is the YEC. They believe that God created the universe exactly in the manner described in the Bible. They believe that the biblical account of the creation's six days is true and that the universe and life on Earth was created only recently.<br><br>OECs may be less popular however their beliefs are as fierce like the YECs. OECs believe that the universe and life on Earth are billions of years old and that evolution is a myth.<br><br>Both kinds of creationism deny the scientific theories that biogenesis and natural selection can explain how life started on Earth. They claim that evolution is not possible because it would require an extraordinary event, and that the pioneers of modern science rejected miracles out of fear that they would lose credibility.<br><br>Some creationists believe in naturalistic evolution as well as special creation, and refer to their position "theistic evolution." It is sometimes referred to as "continuous creationism" or "evolution from the created species." The theory suggests that God creates the original species and then allows them to change over time. These evolution changes will eventually result in new species that are similar to the original.<br><br>Other creationists believe that God created the universe and all living things in one event, referred to as the Great Flood. They believe that all the species of the beginning were created at the same moment and then gradually evolved. They also deny the notion of abiogenesis and claim that the creation of self-replicating organisms from nonliving matter is unattainable.<br><br>In general, creationists oppose the teaching of evolution in schools. Numerous professional associations, such as the National Science Teachers Association and the Association for Science Teacher Education are in support of this view as do the American Anthropological Association and the Geological Society of America. However, some academic institutions and scientists are more flexible and allow for the inclusion of creationism and evolution in their curricula.<br><br>What is Creationism?<br><br>When people think of the concept of creationism, many of them think of the United States. South Korea also has an anti-evolution group. The publishers of high-school textbooks announced last week that they would remove the mention of evolution in their editions. The Society for Textbook Revise, an independent body which is an offshoot of the Korea Association for Creation Research (KACCR) has been the driving force behind this campaign. The STR has achieved its first victory by removing from textbooks examples of the evolution and ancestor of the avian, the Archeopteryx. It is now focusing on removing excerpts from Darwin's notorious finch research and on human evolution as well.<br><br>STR claims that it has the backing of 4,000 families as well as individual members. Its goal, it says is to clear the world of what it calls "atheist materialism" which paints an unflattering image for students. It also hopes to combat the influence of American Creationists in the nation. A survey of trainees in biology revealed that half of them did not believe evolution. The reasons for this are not clear, but may include religion and the absence of full-time creation scientists in the country.<br><br>The KACR has accomplished a lot through its lectures and seminar events. It has a bimonthly news magazine, Creation, and has published books. One of them was an educational textbook on natural sciences with a creationist stance. This sparked an interest in college communities. In 1991, a professor together with a minister began teaching Creation Science at one university. It is still taught to students today.<br><br>On August 6 and 7 in 1993, the same day that the World Expo opened in Daejeon, KACR held a second International Symposium on Creation Research. Six lecturers from abroad including ICR's John Morris, Duane Gish and Steven Austin spoke to audiences of over a thousand. KACR members and KACR have also given talks on creation science in prestigious seminaries. KACR plans to create a Creation Science Education Center in the future.
