Quote:His 2013 book The Bonobo and the Atheist examines human behavior through the eyes of a primatologist, and explores to what extent God and religion are needed for human morality. The main conclusion is that morality comes from within, and is part of human nature. The role of religion is secondary.*emphasis mine*
What's your response to that?
That it's also strong evidence that it is part of animal nature as well.
You can't properly examine human nature without taking into account their evolutionary origins and that humans are one branch of a larger evolutionary tree.
So yeah, well done. You're effectively arguing that morality is evolved.
