NATURALISM AND ETHICAL DARWINISM NATURALISM @ Naturalism is a theoretical framework within philosophy which attributes all knowledge to arise from the study of nature. ®This school of philosophy greatly overlaps with materialism and has produced some of the best scientists. Amongst them, Charles Darwin was a foremost naturalist scientist. ETHICAL DARWINISM © Morality can be defined as a phenomena that arises automatically during the evolution of the sociable, intelligent beings and not due to divine revelation and rational instincts. ©Morality is then a useful adaptation that increases the “fitness” of its holders. @While Darwin was working on his theory he found it particularly difficult to justify the higher moral traits exhibited by humans.
