Psychological evolution...
According to Darwin's theory of evolution it is NOT the strongest that survives neither the smartest but only the fittest; meaning that the one with adaptive capacity would only be able to survive and pass on the evolutionary advantage to its offspring. It just occurred to me that humans during this process of Evolution may however be passing the evolutionary advancement to their offspring, but if looked at a psychological scale humans being sentient beings are blessed as well as cursed with the sense of morality. Now what's fascinating to me is that humans may be evolving in nature biologically but their offspring are never born with the same sense or developed sense of morality than their predecessors thus bringing each offspring back to square one(inspite of biological developments the metaphysical sense is NOT passed upon). It to me seems to become a paradox within itself. Mind you Darwin talked strictly about biological evolution, in my argument I take it one step further to psychological stage. Now, back to the paradox...in the history of human civilization the idea of justice has been based upon this sense of morality. Which also have been utilitariastic. Now biological evolution will change our external appearance as a result of external environment but when humans, live they live in societies; and society does not evolve because individuals living in it do not evolve it becomes a complete loop, and if it does not evolve psychologically it does not evolve at all in its scheme of existence.
Thus constraing us from breaking the schakles of need of social, political and religious dogmas.
