We know from evolution that ideas are where things and behaviors come from.
The ideas are embedded in the genes which then go on to be expressed.
Ideas are imperfect because they are abstractions.
This creates a distribution of good and bad ideas.
The thing that is special about us is that we have general intelligence which means we can have ideas that are good in general or the true sense.
We call these good ideas virtues because they lead towards a good life.
