  I don't know about discriminatory laws what about natural laws. Men being physically stronger than women can easily force a womans legs open this guy must be an idiot. Unless the woman is a professional wrestler and the man is smaller in weight. It's just a stupid ignorant comment.

  The Evolution of Morality - Jonathan Haidt

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the question of how humans came to have a moral sense is one of the more interesting challenges offered by believers against unguided evolution.

  even informed christians who accept the reality of evolution feel a need to add an additional step where god imbued man with a conscience.. non-supernatural explanations of the origin of morality usually focus on simple examples of reciprocal altruism and the ability to empathise with fellow creatures.

  secular moral systems most often rest on the single foundation of the effects actions have on the well-being of conscious creatures.

  Which begs the question will we ever evolve past it or is "religion" in some form or other here to stay?

  It 's not necessarily the traits themselves but the exploitation of them that bothers me. The only way for humans to not get exploited by other humans is to "know thyself" IOW if we become aware of the way our brain/minds work we are less likely to be victim to the exploits of the humans in religious/political/economic power that do know how the human brain/mind works - if that makes sense.

  Hmmm definitely food for thought.

  These company hollow men could not compute the concept of shunning being "cruel."
