Modernizing Tradition and Rethinking Cultural Practices for Health and Science

As we discuss culture, we must audit which practices are scientifically accurate and which should be abandoned; for instance, we should reconsider same-clan marriages and the consumption of unboiled milk, both of which threaten our health.
