A cursory look at history shows that less advanced ethics give a less advanced economical system, science and technology.

ETHICS IS ABSOLUTE, BECAUSE EVOLUTION IS ABSOLUTE:
Indeed is ethics always relative, indirectly measured by techno-economical progress? Of course not. Ethics is absolute. One can point at the Charter of the United Nations, the one that countries founded on an uneducated superstition violate everyday. That is absolute, Human Rights are absolute. That, absolutism, in turn, is founded on ten million years of specifically human evolution. Human beings come with their own owner's manual, and part of it is called ethics. Evolution wanted it, and evolution is all knowing, misericordious, and most merciful. Differently from the big man raging in the sky, it really exists. EVOLUTION GROUNDS ETHICS ABSOLUTELY.
