I absolutely, 100% agree. What makes you think I believe in that bogus
dichotomy? My postulating evolution as a basis for understanding ethics
should've been enough to tell you where I stand on that.
Seems to me you're the one trying to get above or beyond nature in this
discussion, by arguing against the evolutionary basis for decent behavior.
Check your premises.
