So if animals are so devoid of morality why don't the just kill eachother? Like these guys?

Why don't they rip eachother apart?
Or why doesn't big gorilla on this photo simply blunder to death two smaller gorillas considering that it, according to you, doesn't have any sense of morality?

Or maybe it's simply every-bodies common sense from observation that animals have sense of morality?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
