Revealing The Origins Of Morality -- Good And Evil, Liberal And Conservative

Interesting article called Revealing The Origins Of Morality -- Good And Evil, Liberal And Conservative: in it we are given a useful summary of scientific discovery so far germane to thinking about morals and ethics. "social-psychological insights are being synthesized in support of three principles:
1. Intuitive primacy, which says that human emotions and gut feelings generally drive our moral judgments.
2. Moral thinking if for social doing, which says that we engage in moral reasoning not to figure out the truth, but to persuade other people of our virtue or to influence them to support us.
3. Morality binds and builds, which says that morality and gossip were crucial for the evolution of human ultrasociality, which allows humans -- but no other primates -- to live in large and highly cooperative groups"
We ought, in my view especially note the ultrasociality of humans compared with other great apes. A fact which renders very dodgy some attempts to make moral comment (usually on sexuality) based on comparisons with chimps. It's also the potential clash set up by the first two principles that should concern us. Anything to worry Christians here? Not really unless you're a 144-hour creationist. In fact, I think that it can offer some help which fits with the spirit of Christ: "we each learn only a subset of the available human virtues and values. We often end up demonizing people with different political ideologies because of our inability to appreciate the moral motives operating on the other side of a conflict. We are surrounded by moral conflicts, on the personal level, the national level and the international level. The recent scientific advances in moral psychology can help explain why these conflicts are so passionate and so intractable. An understanding of moral psychology can also point to some new ways to bridge these divides, to appeal to hearts and minds on both sides of a conflict", and the Christian-theological suspicion of human motivation because it can so easily be subverted, as well as concern for the other and reaching out to enemies should help in accepting the potential tools this avenue of research could give us.
