The other day I went to work where I worked to help people. Selfless?

People do selfless acts for a reason. No one is selfless.
The closest level to being selfless is an act of kindness. Nothing more.

Are you suggesting that a mother taking care of her child is selfless?

Well would you consider procreation to be selfless then?

Well my point was that if procreation is not selfless then neither is feeding your own children, since they are both undertaken to the same end: raising offspring.

Please explain to me how caring for another person is a selfish act. Wanting to have a kid may be a selfish act, but caring for a kid is a completely different thing.
