Humans are moral creatures. Among all life on Earth, we alone experience rich moral emotions, follow complex rules governing how we treat one another, and engage in moral dialogue. But how did human morality evolve? And can humans become morally evolved?
In A Better Ape, Victor Kumar and Richmond Campbell draw on the latest research in the biological and social sciences to explain the key role that morality has played in human evolution. They explore the moral traits that humans share with chimpanzees; how a more complex moral mind enabled Homo sapiens to arise and out-compete other human species; and the place of morality alongside historic revolutions in technology and social organization. Throughout the book, Kumar and Campbell argue that morality co-evolved with intelligence and complex sociality. Morality prevents societal collapse
and enables complex knowledge.
After unearthing the ancient origins of human morality, Kumar and Campbell use evolutionary theory to deliver profound insights about how to advance moral progress and resist moral regress, such as reducing animal suffering on industrial farms; capitalizing on the recent revolution in gay rights to foster a nascent revolution in transgender rights; opposing intersectional inequality that impacts women and people of color in lower socioeconomic classes; and addressing major problems of global inequality, especially impending crises of injustice caused by anthropogenic climate change. Understanding how we evolved, and how we continue to evolve, can help us become a better ape.

The shared concepts of morality pre-existed man; they didn’t “evolve”, they were taught.

All behaviour is evolved. This is the science section. For your simple, comforting, invisible Daddy in the sky explanation, you’ll want to look in the ‘Spiritual & Religious’ catagory. ABB has a place for everyone. Try not to wander out of yours.
Humans are indeed the great cooperators, except for when we are smashing the out group’s skulls and faces in with clubs because we reject their Moon god - our Sun god is the one and only truth - TO WAR!
*An Ancient, Brutal Massacre May Be the Earliest Evidence of War*
.
‘Even nomadic hunter-gatherers engaged in deliberate mass killings 10,000 years ago’
“Skulls smashed by blunt force, bodies pin-cushioned by projectile points and hapless victims—including a pregnant woman—abused with their hands bound before receiving the fatal coup de grâce.
This violent tableau resembles something from the darker side of modern warfare. But it instead describes the grizzly demise of a group of African hunter-gatherers some 10,000 years ago.”

Thank you. I was looking for something like this because I had enough of the religious BS people spewing.
