Political correctness and the Age of Darkness




However, if one believes in survival of the fittest it becomes more difficult. In the survival-of-the-fittest model, killing someone or stealing from them to enhance your own position is natural. Therefore it is legitimate to ask the source, how does one derive morality in such a model or how does one even define morality?

Rather than demonizing someone who asks that question, wouldn't it be more reasonable to actually come up with a logical answer, if one actually exists? It would seem that the purpose of an institution of higher education would be to explore such questions in an open forum, rather than return to the suppression tactics that characterize the Dark Ages.
