Evaluate the article
Almost everything within the article is relevant, this is because of the abstract nature of the topic. It is impossible, considering that the article explores philosophical ethical theories, for any of it to be out of date, as it is not reliant on changing data but rather abstract philosophical conceptions. The article does not discuss the evolutionary arguments surrounding utilitarianism and objects on the grounds of those arguments.

The article simply provides an overview to the historical debates surrounding the topic and does not hold any implicit positions. The article does not discuss the evolutionary arguments surrounding utilitarianism and objects on the grounds of those arguments. The articles sources are credible and scholarly.
