>He’s not saying we have instinctual ethical views. He’s saying we have a biologically determined interpretive framework we use to evaluate ethical questions. I thought this was entirely obvious to everyone until I read GP’s to comment. We act in a way that keeps the majority of us alive and reproducing. We have done OK at that so as a society, we keep doing it that way. Sure, ok, that’s “relative”, but also obvious and doesn’t invalidate the idea that we know which things are good/ethical beyond how they feel.
