And suppose the instinct to kill children of new wife came about when marrying. Suppose in this scenario, the instinct to fight one another is gone, but the instinct to kill the children of a divorced or widow new wife, was so strong, it would be very hard to control rage levels of the male looking at the children and very hard to avoid the instinct to kill the children.
The morality framework we work with as Lion Setient species in this possible scenario, can it be called "morality" and can we be called compassionate or empathetic if aside from that, we act with mostly morals we are use to now as humans?
I will form an argument out of this soon so think about responses.
You are one confused puppy even for an rank wishthinking idiot.
Totally stealing "wish thinking". Kind of the way "believe" gets transformed from "thinking there is reason to hold as true" into "having hope and faith that it is so" in the hands of Christians.
