This work investigates whether moral systems can be derived from scientific principles rather than traditional mythological or religious foundations to ensure human survival. Raymond B. Cattell, a psychologist known for his work on personality traits and intelligence, applies a framework of evolutionary biology and social psychology to argue that moral priorities should be re-evaluated through the lens of biological fitness and long-term societal stability. He posits that human survival depends on aligning cultural values with the objective requirements of the species' continued existence.
