Description
Summary:This target article summarizes our discourse on one of the major questions raised in our recent book “Evolution Science and Ethics in the Third Millennium,” namely, to what degree are traditional religious belief systems and modern secular ideologies capable of contributing to an evolutionarily based ethical framework that can guide humanity to higher levels of hominization within the context of a further progressing modernization and a sustainable planetary ecology? The article concludes with some reflections on the need for interfaith dialogue and the possibility of integrating traditional religious belief systems and modern secular ideologies into a long-term evolutionarily based ethical approach.
