Still in defense of evolutionary theory, Op Ed in the Korea Times (original) (raw)

The op-ed argues for the validity of evolutionary theory in the face of spiritual explanations and highlights the importance of teaching the evidence for evolution in science classes. It emphasizes robust evidence from fossil records, observed rapid evolution in pathogens like MRSA, and the scientific method's reproducibility. The piece critiques the decision by the Korean Ministry of Education to exclude certain evolutionary concepts from the curriculum, warning that this could lead to ignorance of natural history among students.
