The ultimate goal of the novel is to convince the reader that humans are, due to natural selection, born with a brain that is hardwired for moral reasoning. That isn’t to say that all moral actions and emotions we partake in are a direct result of evolution, but rather that moral rules across different cultures originated from basic…
