에볼루션 사이트 Up until recently the Korean scientific community resisted engaging with the creationists out of fear of giving the movement more credence. The silence is no longer a viable option. The STR has been campaigning to eliminate content from textbooks that explain evolution, including the discovery of the feathered dinosaur Archaeopteryx as an ancestral bird's ancestor. This is just one aspect of the way in which the development paradigm has evolved. What is Evolution? The theory of evolution is a scientific one that explains the changes in the genetic traits of living organisms over time. The theory is based on fact that living things adapt to their surroundings and this can lead to changes in genes, or even entire genomes. Over time these changes could lead to the emergence new species. The prevailing theory of evolution is natural selection, which describes the process by which individuals with advantageous characteristics survive and reproduce more often than those with less favorable characteristics. Over time, this differential reproduction can lead to the development of entirely new species. The term “evolution” originates from Latin for unrolling or revealing has been used in a variety of different ways as the concept has changed, both in science and in other fields. Early evolutionists such as Erasmus Darwin (Charles’s grandfather) and Jean Baptiste de Lamarck believed that species were predestined to change into a new species. The term transmutation was coined by Lamarck's student embryologist Etienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire to describe this idea. Charles Lyell, in his Principles of Geology, published in 1833, criticized the idea of evolution and borrowed the term from Geoffroy’s student. Evolutionary biologists define evolution more recently as a process in which living things develop characteristics to increase their chances of living or producing offspring. Over time this genetic variation can result in the development of completely new biological functions or physical traits in a population. Natural selection is the process that drives the most evolutionary changes. However other changes that are not genetic, such as the growth in the muscle mass as a result of diet or exercise can't be considered examples of evolution because they are not inherited by future generations. Creationists make the argument that evolution is controversial even though it has been proven to be valid by a multitude of scientific tests and it has stood the test of time. They claim that the theory shouldn't be taught in schools. In South Korea, creationists have won a few victories in their efforts to eliminate evolution from textbooks for high school, including the removal of references to the evolutionary roots of humans and the Archaeopteryx feathered dinosaur that is thought to be an ancestral bird's parent. Why is Evolution Important? Evolution explains how Earth and all living species came to be. It is one of the fundamentals of biology, and aids scientists understand how living things work and grow. Evolution also reveals the relationships between species. Scientists study evolution to understand the natural world, and to discover useful information like the development of new drugs. The evidence for evolution of biological species is overwhelming. There is no other scientific theory that explains more about the universe and life on our planet. It has been rigorously studied and verified for many years. Many people, including some religious leaders, support the scientific theory of evolution. It is crucial to keep in mind that evolutionary biology doesn't interfere with religious beliefs since it only addresses physical objects, events, and processes. Many religious people have discovered a way to reconcile evolution with their convictions. For instance, some Christians believe that God created the universe through evolution and that humans have an ancestral lineage with other animals. It is essential that science educators advocate for the teaching evolution. In certain countries, the anti-evolution movement has been growing. In the United States some states have taken measures to restrict teaching evolution. In South Korea, a group known as the Society for Textbook Revise (STR), an offshoot of the Korea Association for Creation Research is urging the removal of textbooks about the evolution of horses and the Avian ancestral Archaeopteryx. It is important to remember that the evidence in support of evolution is overwhelming. The evidence for evolution comes from a variety of sources, including fossils, genetics, and even the behavior of living creatures. The evidence is also independently verified by other scientists. The vast majority of scientists supports the theory of evolution. The reasons behind this support are diverse. Scientists study evolution in order to discover practical solutions such as the development of new medicines, while others do so to improve the lives of animals and plant species, mostly to benefit of humans. Some are simply curious, whereas others have a profound faith in God and want to know how the universe works. What is Creationism? Creationists believe that God created everything in the universe. They also believe that the Bible is God's word and should be believed to be true. While not all creationists are Christian, many are. Creationists are generally divided into two groups: Young Earth Creationists (YEC) or old earth creationists. The most well-known type of creationist is the YEC. They believe that God created the universe exactly in the way described in the Bible. YECs hold that the biblical account of the first six days of creation was literal and that the universe and the life on Earth were only created recently. OECs might not be as known However, their beliefs are as fierce like the YECs. OECs believe that the universe as well as Earth are billions-of-years old and believe that evolution is a myth. Both types of creationism reject that scientific principles such as biogenesis and natural selection could explain how life began on Earth. They argue that evolution isn't possible because it would require an extraordinary event, and that the scientists who founded modern science rejected miracles out of fear that they would lose credibility. Some creationists believe in naturalistic evolution as well as special creation, and refer to their belief “theistic evolution.” This is also referred to as “continuous evolutionism” or the “evolution of species created.” In this belief system, God creates the original species and allows them to change over time. These evolution changes will eventually result in new species that are similar to the original. Some creationists believe that God created all living things and the entire universe in one event called the Great Flood. These creationists hold that all the species of the beginning were created at the same time and then slowly evolved. They also reject the idea of abiogenesis and argue that the creation of self-replicating organisms from nonliving matter is not possible. In general, creationists are against teaching of evolution in schools. Numerous professional associations, like 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, certain academic institutions and scientists are more flexible, and allow the inclusion of creationism and evolution in their curriculum. What exactly is Creationism in Korea? When people think of the concept of creationism most often, they think of the United States. However, South Korea is also home to an anti-evolution movement. The publishers of high school textbooks have recently declared that they will be removing references to evolution from their textbooks. The Society for Textbook Revise, an independent organization that is an offshoot from the Korea Association for Creation Research (KACCR), has led this campaign. The STR has scored its first victory by removing from textbooks examples of the evolution and ancestor of the avian, the Archeopteryx. It is now focusing on removing snippets of Darwin's notorious finch research and on human evolution as well. STR claims to have the backing of 4,000 families and individual members. Its mission, it states, is to rid the world of what it calls “atheist materialism” which paints a negative view 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 a majority of them did not believe evolution. The reasons for this are not clear, but may include religious beliefs and the lack of full-time creation scientists in the country. The KACR has achieved many things through its lectures and seminar events. It publishes a bimonthly magazine called Creation and the book. One of these was an educational textbook on natural sciences with a creationist stance. This led to an interest in the college community. In 1991, a professor, together with a minister began teaching Creation Science at one university. It is still taught to students today. 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 outside the country including ICR's John Morris and Steven Austin presented to an audience of several thousand. KACR members and KACR have also given lectures on the subject of creation science at major seminaries. KACR plans to establish a Creation Science Education Center.
