I still think that 'disprove' is the wrong term to use. It is rather like someone disproving someone's love of Picasso. One can be persuaded to stop liking Picasso (I suppose), but that doesn't disprove that one did like Picasso. Morals and ethics are replaced, supplanted or augmented, rather than disproved. Or, perhaps, the basis on which morals and ethics are constructed may be proved to be inaccurate or ill-informed, I suppose.
Semantics-schmemantics, I know what you mean :)
