RE: Discussion about morals

Nobody is saying morality is static, but just because it changes over time doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The evolutionary argument for morality is that as individuals we are one of the weakest species around (compared to our many would-be predators). Together however, we stand stronger. It was neccessary for our survival that we worked together, and such systems in the wild (pack mentality, instinctual morality, etc) are all precursors to human morality.
