Hello! Welcome to Polyglottist. This blog is for anyone who loves Korean culture, whether it's K-pop, Korean movies, dramas, travel, or anything else. Let's explore and enjoy Korean culture together!

Why has modern civilization caused global warming, and what can we do to address it?

W

Modern civilization has brought us many conveniences, but it has also created a serious problem: global warming. Changes in the climate system and increased carbon dioxide emissions are causing global temperatures to rise. To solve this problem, we need international cooperation, advances in science and technology, and small individual actions.   Modern civilization has given us so much...

Genetically modified foods, a real solution to food problems or a potentially dangerous monster?

G

The term “Frankenfood” refers to genetically modified foods, which have been developed to increase production and facilitate distribution. However, these foods are controversial because their safety for humans and ecosystems is unproven. While genetically modified foods are often seen as a solution to food problems, they also pose potential risks, disruption of ecosystems, and loss of...

Can genetic engineering improve human dignity and quality of life and overcome social and ethical issues?

C

Genetic modification technology has the potential to improve the quality of life and dignity of humans by eliminating birth defects and diseases, and enhancing appearance and intelligence. However, the use of this technology can raise social and ethical issues, which require thorough regulation and research to address.   If genetic manipulation became possible, would you choose the...

Will Genetic Modification and Biotechnology Advances Cause the Extinction of Homo Sapiens?

W

In addition to environmental pollution and nuclear war, humans, currently at the pinnacle of our species, may be wiped out by genetic manipulation. This is the argument of ‘ Sapiens’ that Homo sapiens could disappear as humans evolve into a new species through biotechnology.   On Earth, humans are currently at the top of the food chain. We are capable of building cities...

How does genetic enhancement advance human evolution, and what are the fairness and ethical issues?

H

After Charles Welles’ Antarctic expedition discovers traces of giants, his son and researchers use genetic engineering to create a new human race, the Emache. This raises questions about the ethics and fairness of genetic engineering, and Michael Sandel argues against genetic enhancement. While I agree with Sandel’s view, I argue that fairness is a more important argument against it...

Is genetic modification a necessary part of evolution to adapt to the rapid changes of modern society?

I

Genetic modification is a common theme in science fiction movies, and unlike gene therapy, it’s a technology that improves human form or function. While popular media portrays it negatively, from an evolutionary perspective, genetic modification may be essential to our fast-paced modern society. The harmonization of genes and environment is important to adapt to rapid environmental change...

Can humans stop being God’s creatures and become their own creators?

C

Humans have long been viewed as creatures of God, but Darwin’s theory of evolution changed this view. Today, humans are attempting to create new life forms through genetic manipulation, which could lead to conflict and war between new species and the current human race. The ethical and social implications of genetic manipulation must be carefully considered.   Historically, humans have...

How can religion and science reconcile the long-standing conflict over evolution and creation?

H

The recent discovery of the Higgs boson and the eponymous bird controversy have brought the conflict between religion and science to the forefront, intensifying the debate between evolution and creationism. Theistic evolutionism attempts to reconcile the two, accepting creation as a belief and evolution as a process and viewing them as different categories. This has led to various attempts to...

How stem cell research is driving the 21st century biotechnology revolution and contributing to curing diseases!

H

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that can differentiate into various body tissues and are divided into embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, and induced pluripotent stem cells. These stem cells offer revolutionary possibilities for the treatment of several diseases, including leukemia, Parkinson’s disease, and diabetes, and induced pluripotent stem cells in particular are considered...

Stem cells, a game changer for the future of medicine? (Stem cell characteristics, types, uses, and ethical debates)

S

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to differentiate into specific cells and are characterized by their ability to divide indefinitely. They are categorized into embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, and reverse differentiated stem cells, and are utilized in various fields such as regenerative medicine and drug development, but embryonic stem cells in particular have...
