In this interview provided by MeaningOfLife.tv, popular science author and cognitive psychologist Steven Pinker sits down with Evolution of God author Robert Wright to argue whether or not human beings have become naturally less violent over time. Questions under examination include how spiritual traditions have helped human morality evolve, and how various physical, social and historical factors throughout human history have guided human progress towards equality. With this thoughtful give and take, Pinker consistently argues that human beings have come to their moral sense through evolutionary means, while Wright allows that many of our spiritual traditions have been beneficial in framing what is good or bad.
