Human Good Turns Out to Be the Activity of the Soul Exhibiting Excellence
Aristotle says that human good turns out to be the activity of the soul exhibiting excellence. To a darwinian, it really just means how well adapted to your environment are you? You know, how fit are you? And for humans, for any kind of social primate, is largely the other beings around you,. Your friends, family and mates. So i think aristotle is really trying to get at a virtue is kind of an index of how well your mind works from the point of view of people around you.
