Read the fucking links.

We know that brain damage can make changes to a person's moral behaviour. This is technically testable, reproducible, observable and falsifiable. There have been examples of this happening, a few of which I have posted.

We can observe common features in brains of people with abnormal morality

A Neural Basis for Sociopathy
Neurological basis for lack of empathy in psychopaths


We know that the brain has evolved.

How has the human brain evolved over the years?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_the_brain

The evidence is overwhelming if you are willing to look at it

I went on all the websites and all it gives me is just peoples ideas/stories on how it might have evolved. All we know is that we have a full human brain thats it, there is no evidence for evolution prove me your evolution did it.

Well yeah it is hard for a person like you that lives in his parent's basement and every other week registers here with different names, but for people with lives it is easily understandable why altruism exist. They just look at their friends, because to have a friend you have to do a good deed to him/her and expect to be repaid someday. People that just want to take from other people can't have friends. You can not expect to be friend with somebody if they call you up and ask you to help them movie and you tell them "Fuck you. I would rather play videogames."
So in short people do altruistic things because they expect other people to do the same. Sometimes people are more altruistic toward other people, like give them organs, because they are connected by genes. This is something that Dawkins wrote in "Selfish Gene"
These are signs not of a pure, God-given altruism, but of a form of cooperation that would evolve in small bands of human ancestors when they had to hunt together and live together defending from animals and such.

Prove me that they are connected by genes-convince me that your evolution did it.
