Looks interesting, but don't have the time today to read and digest it. Generally speaking, I'm sympathetic to scientism, but I agree that Evo Psych tends to be "just-so" stories. I do believe, however, that the roots of our moral and ethical senses lie in our evolutionary past.

yes it is too long and could have been two or three articles.

That ethics is rooted in our genetic history is an interesting one.
