This is beyond condescending to any self-determined Korean.
Wow. Just wow.
No, it is NOT at all. What makes you think if a Koren Buddhist presented me with their creation woo I wouldn't say "BULL SHIT". I love Sam Harris but if you have read any of his books he has a hard on for the superstition of Buddhism. I cheered at his book "Letter To a Christian Nation" .
Just because I like you doesn't mean I like every thing you say.
It is STUPID in any culture in EVERY country and pretend that one's own personal fantasy can be put in the same classroom as a science textbook. I love South Korea for their diversity and their western style open market, but that doesn't mean they should lower themselves to the crap I know exists here in America with our IDers and Creationists. I don't care if their myths are different.
If a culture gets to define itself always on personal taste then Burkas and 72 virgins are equal to sex education.
