We have morality because it helped us survive. Again, do you see the difference? We have these feelings because having those feelings helped us survive. Those are our *moral* feelings. So, being moral in this way helped us to survive.
Ok... I don't think that you can support that; but then evolution has nothing to do with what is moral? And what the nature of morality is.
