Modernizing Tradition and Rethinking Cultural Practices for Health and Science

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.
