And suppose the instinct to kill children of new wife came about when marrying. Suppose in this scenario, the instinct to fight one another is gone, but the instinct to kill the children of a divorced or widow new wife, was so strong, it would be very hard to control rage levels of the male looking at the children and very hard to avoid the instinct to kill the children.


The morality framework we work with as Lion Setient species in this possible scenario, can it be called "morality" and can we be called compassionate or empathetic if aside from that, we act with mostly morals we are use to now as humans?


I will form an argument out of this soon so think about responses.

If that was the case would Allah still exist and would you go to paradise?

If we evolved from lions, why are there still lions?

It's a well-known fact that we evolved from unicorns, which is why there are no more unicorns.

It's an absurd question .Because we didn't . We evolved from Apes . And yes proto morality exists .And your pushing an ought fallacy .

Too weird. Can you really draw any reasonable conclusions about our actual situation by considering such a strange hypothetical? Hint: no.
