Thanks for that from Darwin. Yes that is how we supposedly derive some moral principles from the ToE, but do note: he had to make up WHAT principle we should derive from it, as we always have to make it up, because the ToE really doesn't prescribe a moral standard. Sympathy? Well, OK? Altruism? Does it tell us not to steal, covet, lie, murder, commit adultery? Those principles also exist in Buddhism, based on the simple fact that nobody likes to be stolen from, lied to, cheated on etc. At least those principles have the virtue of being more or less in agreement with the Second Table of the Ten Commandments, but the ToE doesn't prescribe any morality with any kind of authority. You could just as well argue that evolution makes serial killers and greedy capitalists and tyranny. It seems to justify abortion just fine, and probably euthanasia.
