Why Evolution Is True; entry 1

I found it rather interesting that Jerry A. Coyne, unlike many other authors, has also provided psychological hypotheses as to why many people choose not to accept evolution. This is different from other evolutionary non-fiction books that I have read, where they just state that evolution is right and creationism/ intelligent design is wrong.
"Evolution is also thought to erode morality. If, after all, we are simply beasts, then why not behave like beasts? What can keep us moral if we're nothing more than monkeys with big brains? No other scientific theory produces such angst, or such psychological resistance" (Jerry A. Coyne, pg 16"
This provides a possible insight into the mind of those that can't believe in evolution. Perhaps there is a perception that we are special to the point that only a divine being could create us and that to compare us to everything else is clearly an err. Perhaps they just fear that with the acceptance of evolution, morality will go out the window as "We are nothing but beasts". However now that I have put thought to it, it is indeed very likely that there is a psychological opposition to evolution and that's what creates most of the opposition.
