Evolutionary Worldview Makes for Relative Morality and Relative Everything, All a Function of Whatever You Happen to Think Important

There is no such thing as absolute moral standards from an evolutionary perspective. There is no such thing as cultural institutions that are right or wrong, only adaptive practices that confer some benefit on the cultural or not, according to whatever speculative standard the analyst adopts.

While they may apply some pretty sound moral thinking to particular social issues, as I think Bret and Heather do, their evolutionary perspective undoes any claim to their soundness. It all depends on how you understand benefit, and since that is open to speculation from a variety of points of view you aren't going to get anything like a solid system for understanding much of anything in the sphere of human life.

Just a thought. No pithy critique yet.

Maybe I should try to spell out the Christian worldview. Just for contrast, or frame of rerference.

Hm.
