Scientific Morality! It's about time!

The point of the thread would be Attie shooting himself in the foot.

After repeatedly claiming in another thread about the golden rule that it is bullshit and that morals in China are based on scientific principles, Attie was asked to prove his case by giving example of morality based on science. I'm guessing that as a knee-jerk reaction, he searched the internet for that combination of words and started another thread with the first link he found. The shooting-himself-in-foot part is that, ironically, this article posits moral tenets that are incompatible with those being practiced by the Chinese government and actually advocates in favor of the golden rule.
