Attack of the Theocrats!
What exactly does psychological evolution even mean?
Seems like a massive get out clause there to make the claim unfalsifiable. If I examine myself and find my 'so called' morality is actually moral, I'm simply being dishonest. So I either agree with this point or I'm a liar. Perfect.
What is the human condition and why do we need to be cured of it?
So take the premise that we all lack morals, call anyone who disagrees a liar, state that we're all doomed - unless we 'psychologically transform' (whatever that means) - to a meaningless life (we're not allowed to decide for ourselves what's meaningful, apparently) and then sit back and look smug.
Sounds like a load of guff.
