Morality and Versatility

As has been previously discussed, one definition of 'to evolve' is 'to increase versatility'.  Such increase in versatility is evident throughout the course of Human history thus far: from the distinctive thumb, to the multifarious use of tools, to travel where no terrestrial species ever has before.  A further example is, as has been previously discussed, the versatility of internal organization of the Human species--from rigidly homogenized, to loosely dissipated--including varieties of Moral codes.  So, if Morality is a distinctively Human characteristic, it is not, as Darwinists propose, insofar as its members have a greater propensity for cooperation than do members of other species, it is insofar as it is capable of much greater versatility of internal organization.
