It's easy to accept that the way humans evolved resulted in us having morality.
What I don't see yet is why evolution would necessarily result in us having any particular morality. I mean, it would be nice to think that natural selection favors societies in which everyone lives happily together and shares resources. But is there any scientific evidence that this is true? Maybe strong DNA is more effectively passed down if one or two tough guys enslave harems and rape them to produce lots of babies.
Is there any empirical, repeatable, quantifiable evidence that evolution gives rise to the kind of morality that we happen to like?
