Atheism and Ethics

[Angrboda]

Appearances can be deceiving. An interesting question is, if there is naturalistic morality, and we have evolved intuitions that align with the good in nature, in what way did that good bring selective pressures to bear on the evolution of our intuitions. It doesn't seem like there is a ready story which explains the natural selection of moral intuitions even if morality is imbued in nature. On the other hand, we don't question our intuitions concerning logic and things like the principle of non-contradiction or our mathematical intuitions, and those seem to present similar challenges.
