(February 16, 2015 at 12:47 pm)Gavin Duffy Wrote: Just curious to get your opinions on the emergent domain of 'secular spiritualism' vs. classic religious orthodoxy and how they relate to moral reasoning?

As if this hadn't been asked about a million times already. Go look up some vids on youtube about recent research about animal cognition and morality.

The notion that only humans act moral, whatever that is, since there are as many moral codes as there are human cultures, has been utterly debunked by scientific research.

Straight to the point: We aren't that special. Just another species of social animals acting within the specific parameters our group sets up.
