Why selfishness is a good thing( some christianity involved)

[valenzuela]

This is the val selfishness quoficient scale:
total selfishness = 1
" love others as u love urself" = 0
caring about other while not caring about u = -1.

The chrisitian ideal is 0. 0 means that youre neighbour is just as important as you.
Now that is a bit problematic. Sports would be very boring to watch, etc.

To be fair lets move our new christian ideal to 0,2. 0,2 means mother teresa. You basically dedicate your life to the poor.

We also have 0,8. A VSQ of 0,8 is the normal douchebag( u, me, DS, etc). 0,8 is what we have now.

We also have 1. 1 is someone totally egocentric.

What would happen if we had a higher VSQ: Much more parents would neglect their kids and we would have lacked the cooperation needed to succeed.

What would happen if we had a lower VSQ: It would be bad for our evolution, we would care too much for the weak. Note that lower VSQ with ppl would have probably lead to lower VSQ with animals.

Another reason why we need a high VSQ its because of reproduction .
If Jimmy and Bob fall in love with Mary. Jimmy will now see Bob as a rival, that is necesarry because if Jimmy doesnt have an absolute desire to defeat Bob in the conquest on Mary then a sub-par reproduction could happen.( we need individuals to be 100% focused on getting the person they love, the way to achieve that is with high 100% VQS)
The only way for Jimmy to have an absolute desire to defeat Bob in the conquest of Mary is for him to have a VSQ that is high enough on the first place.

So what Im basically saying is that humans need to be selfish( but not too selfish) for practical reasons.

Christianity puts a lot of emphasis on a lower VSQ, and that is the huge mistake of christianity.
Jesus himself said that we should love others the same as we love ourselves, that sentence should be a reason strong enough to not be christian. Chrisitanity simply doesnt fit with the real world.
A religion in which a guy who died for someone else is a saint has to be wrong.( maximilian kolbe)
If we all had the VSQ of the ppl that christians admire we would have never made it to the point we are now.
