And 3 month olds lack the capacity to recognize much of anything as right or wrong.

Yes, people don't normally reason out why X is right or wrong, but that doesn't [necessarily] mean that the intuition came about because of some divine entity or because of some platonic thingy out there whatever it may be. You jump the gun when you conclude that all this must be because of the Good.


Your appeal to evolution is incomplete.

Ok, let's examine your below reasoning then.

Quote:Our ability to recognize or perceive the sun outside, is a result of multitude of ways evolution has developed our perception related biological elements. But what we are seeing (the sun) is not an illusion of our biological make up, but something external to us.

True, but do you seriously want to put something concrete like the sun in the same category as something that is intuitively abstract such as morality? I need to see your reasoning as to why this analogy works in your favor because it seems to me to be a clear false analogy.

Plus, I am talking about intuition specifically here anyway (and cognition in general). Your ability to perceive the sun is linked to how we have evolved as a human species.

Quote:Evolution our biological elements, are the tools that aid in our perception of the good, just like in regards to the sun. Most people recognize a moral reality transcendent to themselves, don’t recognize good and evil as some internal biological state, but of reality itself.

You have social studies to support the claim I emphasized in bold? I would say most people just intuit things are right or wrong but without generally thinking too deep about these matters. When pressed to answer why, they may say because it hurts the other person or deprives the other person of this or that, or simply because it just isn't right.

Quote:The good is not some illusion of our biology, but an external reality itself.

Which you have yet to demonstrate is the case (by good, I'm assuming you mean the platonic Good).

Quote:You might want to argue otherwise, but it’s only a short path before it turns to solipsism.

How so?
