The section on Evolution seems to imply that natural selection favors a single kind of morality. Perhaps it would help to cite current scholarship indicating that it actually produced [[moral diversity]] (as it produced diversity of blood-type and sex). Such citations can be found in that article.[[Special:Contributions/165.189.37.11|165.189.37.11]] ([[User talk:165.189.37.11|talk]]) 18:57, 3 February 2014 (UTC)

Small deletion

Paragraph "In any society, actual behavior patterns diverge.." deleted as not relevant to morals as construct/in definition. Whilst I like the first sentence I couldn't leave it standalone. The remainder, in my opinion, is of the class "this [subjectively classed] group of people (pundits) definitely do [semi-subjectively classed] action (pose politically)", which strikes me as unnecessary/POV. mr happyhour 18:10 04 AUG 06

Too many templates

Har har at the recent addition of a {{too many templates}} template here (though that, strangely enough, seems to print a message that there are not yet enough templates), but I agree with the sentiment. The number of "such-and-such redirects here" hatnotes on this article is getting Too Damn High. Is there some way of condensing this down to something more reasonable? --Pfhorrest (talk) 04:24, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, and a lot of that stuff shouldn't redirect here - they're dictionary type words that are ambiguous and don't necessarily mean morality. They either shouldn't be anything, or should be a disambiguation page. Richard001 (talk) 23:45, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I agree: It would be reasonable to change these redirect pages into disambiguation pages. Jarble (talk) 04:20, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

NPOV

Why is this article marked as having a NPOV dispute? - Bernardwoodpecker (talk) 14:39, 14 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Bernardwoodpecker: An editor discussed the issue here.

The section on Evolution seems to imply that natural selection favors a single kind of morality. Perhaps it would help to cite current scholarship indicating that it actually produced moral diversity (as it produced diversity of blood-type and sex). Such citations can be found in that article.165.189.37.11 (talk) 18:57, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
