    "Indeed, evolutionary ethicists have justified just about every human evil in terms of evolution (after all, how could those evils persist unless they had an evolutionary justification).

    Perhaps we don’t need a white-coated technician in the sky to be good. But ...evolution gives us plenty of reason to be bad."

    - Dr. William Dembski
