The Correlated History of Social Organization, Morality, and Religion
... of these traits presumably evolved by small steps from ape precursors in a sequence that is much less well understood. In this chapter I relate this functional analysis of morality and religion to the evolutionary history of human sociality. I consider morality to be the individual cognitive faculty ...

... justice is drawn towards the good in itself and thus to God, without reference to any advantage to the self. Loving an enemy is the paradigm case because it so clearly leaves behind the self and its extensions to others in one’s community and tribe. On the other hand, the affection for advantage is ...

As an empirical phenomenon, anthropologists, sociologists, and others from across the social sciences have long noted the existence of both social norms and institutions, often evoking each to explain behavioral similarities within groups, or to differentiate groups and societies. However, despite t ...

Evolution of Aging and Late Life
... How can we test theories of aging? If Aging has evolutionary basis 1.) Early reproduction will accelerate aging in population. 2.) Late reproduction will slow aging in population. ...
