The false self and our knowledge of it's deception proves God.

[Mystic]

Actually I'm pretty sure there are people who want others to value them more than themselves. The military runs on that logic. Kings felt that way too, and these ancient books were written at a time where the populous worshiping kings and emporers was common. That just doesn't fly in the modern age.

I do value myself above others, and the reason I don't expect others to, is because I expect everyone to value themselves above others. That way they don't wind up dying needlessly. I don't know how this proves a god. And yet I doubt this will be the last thread you make, trying to prove a god through mental gymnastics.

These things people take the time to realize about themselves. They question, why do I love myself more than others? Why do I centralize my life for myself? 

You saying it should be simply because it should be, when it's a paradox, is highly problematic. You are not sure, ok, fair enough, seek to discover, are we interconnected, should be valuing ourselves over others or not? The paradox is you don't believe you ought to objectively be valued more so by others, yet you value yourself. This has to say something. We aren't acting to truth, we are acting to falsehood...

Of course, there are people who value others as much as themselves or some more than themselves, but they are a minority.
