Teacher

It has been for over one century that scientists believed that evolution works on genes instead individuals. Education and altruism as well as reproduction support genes to transfer to prospective generations. While reproduction mainly holds the central dogma of life’s permanence, education and altruism maintain its ethical side. Basically religion is more about altruism while teaching and education alone stands as the other moral pole of civilization. You do not have to reproduce to save your genes. In altruism, the person, for example parents, scarifies themselves to save the children survive. In this context, altruism can be as important as reproduction itself. Teaching is another way to enhance the survival value of individuals of interest. People can teach who share genes with them; in this way, what they have learnt will increase their fitness to adapt themselves to the environment.I still remember from childhood I could enjoy smelling flowers and trees, breeze and beach, autumn and spring.
