Evil, says Harvard psychologist and evolutionary biologist Marc D. Hauser, evolved, and emerges in daily life, as an accident of our brain's engineering. Unlike any other creature, present or past, only we combine processes of the mind that have independent and highly adaptive consequences for survival to create the ingredients of evil. When our desire for personal gain combines with our capacity for denial, we turn to excessive harms, aimed at eliminating, effacing, humiliating, and obliterating those who stand in the way.

His scientifiic misconduct had to do with studies about self-awareness of monkeys, not with studies about morality.

The scary thing is that Dr. Hauser looks and talks just like any of hundreds of other intense, energetic, tightly focused scientists I have encountered in my career. You would never imagine that he had been found to have committed not one but several blatant frauds.

Well science has so many fields and its impossible to track alls aspects of every field,especially after my traffic accident in the year 2010,I had no time to track anything that kind. I really thank you for the notice you gave me about Mr Hauser. The weird thing is that he has some similarities with other brain scientists' results (ex.Ramanchandran).It needs some research here I guess.Well thats why I found your comment not helpful..it didnt help in a research.The last was most helpful.
