Doesn't he give ev-psych explanations (with a group-selectionist bent) for the origins of all of his foundational values?

I wouldn't know, I haven't actually read his books. What bothers me is that unlike the other values, I can't even give a definition of what constitutes purity/sacredness without appealing to a black box in my brain.
