    To state that all we do is out of "selfishness" is unfounded for one can also make an argument stating that all we do is for the good of others. I can cite personal examples in my life of people in my life that not all our actions are selfish, i.e. beneficial to us in some ways.

      Please cite those examples, so that I can explain to you that there is no altruistic behavior.

        How about believing in God and Living the path of the Lord.
        would this be a selfish act?

        I say yes because people do this to secure a place in heaven.

        so they believe because they want a better place for themselves.

          All you be able to do is to explain how, if the motivation behind them is as you say it is, these acts are not altruistic. Neither you nor he fully understand the basis of his decision-making process, and neither you nor he truly knows whether or not these acts are altruistic or done in his own best interest. To say that you know is tantamount to sophistry. I never though I'd say this, but everyone here but the Mouse is being very narrow-minded about this.
