Evolution Korea<br><br>Up until recently, the Korean scientific community was hesitant about engaging with the creationists out of fear of giving the movement more credence. The silence is no longer an option.<br><br>The STR has been battling to get rid of textbooks that explain evolution, such as the discovery of the feathered dinosaur Archaeopteryx as an ancestor of birds. But this is merely one aspect of the evolution of the development paradigm.<br><br>What is Evolution?<br><br>Evolution is a theory of science that explains the evolution of genetic characteristics over time. The theory is based on the fact that living organisms adapt to their environments and this can lead to changes in genes or even whole genomes. These changes can over many generations lead to the creation of new species. Natural selection is the dominant theory of evolution. It describes how individuals who have advantages can reproduce faster and longer than those with less advantageous traits. This differing reproduction may be a catalyst to the development and emergence of new species.<br><br>The word "evolution" comes from the Latin word for unraveling or revealing, however the concept itself has a myriad of meanings since it took form in the sciences and in other fields. Some early evolutionists, like Jean Baptiste de Lamarck and Erasmus Darwin (Charles's grandfather) believed that the existing species transformed into other species in a predetermined fashion. The term transmutation was coined by Lamarck's student embryologist Etienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire 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 species are evolving into new species in a gradual and predictable manner.<br><br>In recent years evolutionary biologists have defined evolution as a process when living creatures develop characteristics that enhance their chances of survival or ability to reproduce offspring. As time passes, genetic variation can cause a population to acquire new physical characteristics or biological functions. Natural selection is the process that drives the majority of evolutionary changes. However non-genetic changes like increases in muscle mass due to diet or exercise can't be considered to be examples of evolution since they're not inherited by future generations.<br><br>Despite the fact that evolution has stood the test of time and a multitude of scientific tests Creationists have taken advantage of the idea that the theory is controversial to claim that it shouldn't be taught in schools. In South Korea, creationists have won a few victories in their campaign to exclude evolution from high-school textbooks, [https://wiki.gta-zona.ru/index.php/Bekkerwaller0319 ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ๋ฐ์นด๋ผ] including the removal of any mention of the evolutionary origins of humans, as well as the Archaeopteryx feathered dinosaur believed to be the ancestor of birds.<br><br>Why is Evolution Important to Humanity?<br><br>Evolution explains the origins of Earth and all living species. It is also one of the pillars of biology, and helps scientists discover how living things operate and grow. Evolution also reveals the relationships between species. Scientists study evolution in order to better comprehend nature and make important discoveries, such as the development of new medicines.<br><br>The evidence for biological evolution is overwhelming. No other scientific theory explains as much about the universe as the life on this planet. It has been thoroughly examined and confirmed for many years. Many people, including some religious leaders, believe in the theory of evolution as a scientific fact. It is important to remember that evolutionary biology does not interfere with religions, since the theory is based on objects, events and processes within the physical world.<br><br>In reality many religious people have found ways to reconcile their beliefs with evolution. For example, some Christians believe that God created the universe through evolution, and that humans share an ancestry with other animals.<br><br>It is important for scientists to support the teaching of evolution. In certain countries, the opposition to evolution has been rising. In the United States, efforts to limit the teaching of evolution have made some progress in a few states. In South Korea, a group known as the Society for Textbook Revise, an offshoot from the Korea Association for Creation Research (KAC) is a campaign for textbooks that cover the evolutionary history of horses and [https://k12.instructure.com/eportfolios/917808/home/is-evolution-slot-the-most-effective-thing-that-ever-was ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ๊ฒ์ด๋ฐ] their avian ancestor [http://italianculture.net/redir.php?url=https://avery-velasquez-4.federatedjournals.com/25-surprising-facts-about-evolution-gaming ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ๊ฒ์ด๋ฐ] Archaeopteryx.<br><br>While these are troubling developments, it is also important to remember that the evidence for evolution is overwhelming. The evidence for evolution comes from many sources, such as fossils, genetics, and the behavior of living creatures. Other scientists independently verify the evidence.<br><br>The majority of scientists supports the theory of evolution. The reasons for this support are diverse. Scientists study evolution to make practical discoveries for example, such as the development of medicines, while others are motivated by an interest in improving the quality of life for animals and plant species, typically for the benefit of humans. Some are simply curious, and others have a deep religious belief in God and are seeking to know how the universe works.<br><br>What is Creationism?<br><br>Creationists are people who believe that God created the universe and all that is in it. They also believe that the Bible is God's word and should be taken literally. Many creationists are Christians However, not all. Creationists typically fall into one of two categories: Young Earth creationists (YEC) and old earth creationists (OEC).<br><br>The YECs are perhaps the most well known type of creationist, and they believe that God created the world exactly as described in the Bible. They believe that the biblical account of the six days of creation is true, and that the universe and life on Earth started only recently.<br><br>OECs are not as well-known However, they're just as enthusiastic about their beliefs as YECs. OECs believe the universe and Earth are billions-of-years old and believe that evolution is a myth.<br><br>Both kinds of creationism deny the idea that scientific principles like biogenesis and natural selection can explain how life started on Earth. They claim that evolution is inconceivable because it requires miracles. The founders of modern science shunned miracles in fear that they might lose their credibility.<br><br>Some creationists believe in naturalistic evolution and also special creation. They consider their views to be "theistic evolution." It is sometimes referred to as "continuous creationism" or "evolution from the created species." The theory says that God creates original species and then allows them to change over time. Eventually, these evolutionary changes will create new species that are identical to the original species.<br><br>Others believe that God created the universe and all living things during a single event, referred to as the Great Flood. They believe that the original species were created at the same time and that they developed slowly afterward. They reject the idea of abiogenesis and assert that self-replicating life can't come from non-living matter.<br><br>In general, the creationists oppose the teaching of evolution at schools. This is a position that is backed by a myriad of professional associations, including the National Science Teachers Association, the Association for Science Teacher Education and the American Anthropological Association, and the Geological Society of America. Some scientists and [https://click4r.com/posts/g/18822320/10-things-we-do-not-like-about-evolution-baccarat-free-experience ์๋ณผ๋ฃจ์ ์ฝ๋ฆฌ์] ๋ฃฐ๋ , [https://click4r.com/posts/g/18822724/a-trip-back-in-time-what-people-talked-about-free-evolution-20-years-a https://click4r.com/posts/g/18822724/a-trip-back-in-time-what-people-talked-about-free-evolution-20-years-a], educational institutions are, however, more flexible and allow both evolution and creationism to be included in their curriculum.<br><br>What is Creationism?<br><br>When people think of creationism, they often think of the United States. South Korea also has an anti-evolutionist group. The publishers of high-school textbooks recently announced that they will remove references to evolution from their editions. A group known as the Society for Textbook Revise (STR) is an unofficial body that is an offshoot of the Korea Association for Creation Research and has been the driving force behind the move. STR has won its first victory in eliminating examples of the evolution of the horse as well as an avian ancestor called the Archeopteryx from textbooks. It is now focusing on the removal of excerpts from Darwin's infamous finch research and on human evolution as well.<br><br>STR claims that it has the support of around 4,000 families and individuals. Its mission is to cut out what it believes is the "atheist materialism" that reflects a hopeless worldview for students. It also seeks to counter the influence of American creationists who live in the US. A survey of trainees in biology revealed that half of them didn't believe in evolution. The reasons for this are not clear however, they could be related to religious beliefs or the absence of full-time creation scientists in the United States.<br><br>The KACR has achieved a lot through its seminars and lectures in the past. It also publishes a bimonthly magazine called Creation and the book. One of them was an educational textbook on natural sciences with a creationist stance. This led to an interest in college communities. In 1991 an academic and minister began teaching Creation Science in one university and it is taught to this day.<br><br>On August 7 and 8, 1993, coinciding with the World Expo opened in Daejeon, KACR held a second International Symposium on Creation Research. Six lecturers from abroad including ICR's John Morris and Steven Austin, spoke to thousands of people. KACR members and KACR have also given lectures on creation science in major seminaries. KACR plans to establish a Creation Science Education Center in the future.
