I only wish to say that I disagree with the statement that "ethical behavior is built on human nature". It is the "human nature" part that I take issue with. I believe each person's sense of ethics comes from a combination of education/experiences, social network, physiological chemistry of that person, IQ, and genetic makeup. That combination causes a person to form a construct of ethics they rely on to defend their behavior. The only other part that throws a crux into their formula is the level of spiritual connection they have to the greater universe, and I am not yet unconvinced that that particular level of connection may also be a genetic thing.
thanks for listening.
Have a good day!
