Philosophical thread of the day: Is morality inherent to our human nature?

[FreeTheSlaves]

And yet every society on Earth has, and always has, engaged in such things, from European tribes to Kalihari bushmen. That's not 'Western' society or 'wealthy First World' society, that's human society. Put three people in a room and you will eventually have an unequal distribution of whatever resources are available to them.

Yes, we have always done & currently do, but if you believe that we have the freedom to make our future we can now think of "ought." By going off in a roundabout manner in bringing in the "western" international definition, I was highlighting the inequality at the domestic level is unsurprisingly being replicated in world affairs. Again we can look to the future & decide our "ought," unless we have no ability to change our self-destructive manner. Even if we cannot change our cannibalising practices, it is not at all clear if we are by nature doomed to destroy any hope for a peaceful world or if complex self-reinforcing social practices are at fault.
