How do you reconcile philosophy with evolution?

>>25089995
Profane, both of them.

Based

Is/ought

>>25089995
it's hard to imagine why, as the effect of natural selection, humans developed such irrational brain
>>
>>25089995
By a being a progressive.
Since there is overwhelming evidence that mankind has undergone biological evolution then there is strong cause to believe it has and will socially and morally evolve too.

What's the conflict exactly?
How should I live? I am to be a good human, that is all

If you are to stupid to figure this out on your own you don’t deserve an answer. Kill yourself troglodyte.

Empiricism/physicalism

In a good way though? Or will humans simply become, like dogs, bred to never mature emotionally?
>>
>>25089995
this has never been a problem since the days of the ancient greeks

what's there to reconcyle? The randomess of natural selection is already implied in early Greek atomistic system, and its entirely coherent with most materialist and nominalist philosophical systems.
I have read both the Origins of the Species and Voyage of the Beagle, and both are highly philosophical books - the second is also especially well written, so I'd recommend them to anyone. I do not see where do you imagine a contrast between evolution and philosophy - except for the fact that you have not read any philosophy or any text on evolution.
>>
>>25089995
You don't reconcile them as if they're rivals. They operate at different levels.
>>
>>25089995
There is no evolutionary explanation for consciousness, libtard.
