Please spare us! Evolution may say that we are one step above Koko the gorilla as opposed to one step below angels but it does not reject morality. Evolution actually supports conventional morality to a surprising extent. Furthermore, I completely reject the idea of a degredation of morality and a rejection of the Judeo-Christian ethic. Today 50% of people claim to go to church. In colonial New England the percentage of religeous devotion was about 20% (incidentally, that was the rate of unwed pergnancy.) There simply has not been a moral decline in the world. And even if there was, don't blame it on evolution's "look out for number one" because evolution doesn't support that.
