The Significations of Theory of Genesis in Cultural Theory

"The theory of genesis" depicts a divine, comprehensive, unchangeable, non-acquired, and immune- against- error essence for man that other creatures do not enjoy. Therefore, genesis differentiates man from other creatures. The entrance of concept of "genesis" into the foundations of different sciences has had many cognitive consequences. The cultural theory is one of those sciences that have attained some important scientific achievements after adopting the concept of "genesis". Such issues as "basing the duration of cultures on natural elements", "using divine nature by all cultures", "accepting some cultural differences among societies as valid", "analyzing cultural crises based on genesis", "accepting the fact that all cultures can transcend", "believing that communications are natural, "the possibility of dialogue between cultures with the language of genesis", "essential compatibility of cultures with religious culture", and "formulating cultural policy making based on the theory of genesis" are some significations of the theory of genesis in cultural theory which have been analyzed and criticized in this paper.
