Rob Kurzban: 本期讨论了堕胎政策的演化心理学视角,认为人们对堕胎政策的支持与否,与其性策略和生殖利益密切相关。倾向于开放性性关系的人更支持堕胎,因为这降低了意外怀孕的成本;而倾向于一夫一妻制的人则更反对,因为这可以防止伴侣的不忠。他还指出,人们在表达道德立场时,往往会掩盖自身利益的驱动因素,这是一种自我欺骗。历史上的英雄人物,例如民权运动的参与者,则为不属于自己群体的权利而斗争,这体现了超越自身利益的道德原则。但他认为,即使是这些英雄人物,其行为也可能受到自身利益的潜移默化的影响。 Chris Willx: Willx 认同 Kurzban 的观点,并进一步探讨了人们如何利用道德信念来掩饰自身利益。他认为,人们在表达对堕胎政策的立场时,往往会强调高尚的道德原则,例如生命的圣洁或女性的自主权,而不会提及自身利益。他还提出了一个问题:是否存在完全不受自身利益影响的道德立场?
