Perhaps a divine creator handed us these universal elements at the moment of creation. But an alternative explanation, consistent with the facts of biology and geology, is that over millions of years we have evolved a moral faculty that generates intuitions about right and wrong.
可能是某个神圣的造物主在创世之时就把普世成份交给了我们。然而，另一个符合生物学和地质学事实的替代解释是，在数百万年中，我们已经演进了一种可以产生有关对错的直觉的道德能力。
