6. I'm not even talking about "bibley crap".

Just looks at the sweeping moral changes that have taken place in the past 100 years. Divorce, pre-marital sex, homosexuality, etc. In the past they were considered scandalously immoral. Now, we hardly even blink an eye. This isn't because we've turned our back on morality, it's because morality has always had a social component and is dependent on social mores. If it was somehow encoded in our DNA our ideas of what is moral and what is not wouldn't change.
