Personally I don't link evolution and morals/ethics/philosophy/religion.
Scientific explanations of evolution are mechanistic, not teleological.
Evolution can't explain consciousness or behavior, either. It's reasoning backwards, which is inherently flawed. Fun to do, but not real science.
Some evolutionists, like EO Wilson, try to use evolution to explain behavior, but he's studying insect behavior, which appears to be more or less hard wired in.

Evolution is a scientific theory not a way of life bump.
