Another interesting moral take

This is a slightly different take on the morality conversation.  But it's interesting that gentleman was advocating a moral code yet was unaware of  what the data showed about the harm that his moral code was causing.

A quote from a debate between Christopher Hitchens and William Craig

" WC moral argument: it’s not epistemology it’s the ontology – have you got a foundation for moral values and duties?
CH i do not, it’s just evolution, an evolved standard based on social cohesion."


Hitchens denies the moral argument for the existence of God, by declaring that morality evolved.   He's essentially arguing that science provides an adequate explanation for morality.
