I do things for the neighbors kids all the time. That the kids belong to the neighbor doesn't make those things altruistic.
If I did things for isis kids, or assholes kids, or any kids, anywhere....that wouldn't make those things altruistic any more than doing them for the neighbors kids makes things altruistic.
That...is....not....what....altruism...refers.....to.
You posted the definition yourself, take the time to read and comprehend it. I have my own interests, my own conditions. Your god has it's own interests, it's own conditions.
ok doing things for the neighbor kids=interest in the concern status or position you have with the neighbor there fore not an altruistic act correct?
so if the kids are not connect to you or better yet they are connect to someone who hates you, but it is in your nature to help those kids for no other reason than that is your nature then explain to me how this is not an altruistic act?
Can you see the circle of logic you are projecting yet?
You can not have it both ways.
You're still imagining some conversation in your head.
It doesn't matter who's kids they are, or what my own interests and conditions are. I have my own interests and conditions...therefore it is not altruism. Your god has its own interests and conditions, as well.
You keep asking people to tell you how these acts aren't altruistic, but you posted the definition yourself. What about "that's not what that word means" do you not understand?
