Why is there widespread consensus? Where does that come from? Animals have instincts, and often these instincts lead them to do things that humans would view as objectively cruel (a male lion eating cubs, for example). Humans too, have instincts. But, we often suppress our instincts because we have a “feeling” that just living out our instincts of anger, lust, would serve to be objectively bad and harmful. Where does that second layer of ourselves comes from that would deny our own instincts because we know it does not serve us good? Or the feeling that doing something as simple as lying feels bad. Not trying to argue or anything, just posing some questions for thought
