Ever heard of words like honour, justice, CHARITY, devotion?
so they fight because they are compelled by these feelings.
So by your logic we should cast our parents out once they get old if they have no money to leave us?
no, not at all. that's not what i'm saying. i am simply saying that there is no such thing as true altruism. people are nice to one another, and do the "right" thing, because they *want* to do it. this guy is complaining that people are giving because they get something from it. my point is that if nobody got anything out of it, nobody would give. even if you do not want your name on some brick, and you're just doing it to help others, you are still doing it to fulfill that desire in you, the desire to help others.
It's called being human instead of an animal.

Not much for rhetorics, eh?
When I donate, I don't expect anything in return. That's partly because I'm such a swell guy, and also because no one's going to name a library after me for $20. Come on man, surely you would not seriously talk smack to people who give away free money(in millions). Don't look the gift horse in the mouth or something similar...

What about the poor college student needs school funding at UNT charity? email: rabidlobster@yahoo.com for more info on my scam, i mean charity.
IMO, most charities are in general a waste of money that would be better spent elsewhere, or in a different manner. Instead of spending millions feeding hungry children who are unlikely to ever repay the contribution society has made to them, efforts should be focused on more worthwhile projects to society as a whole.
Yes, I know this sounds cruel, eliteist, choose your description. I hold unpopular views on welfare, crime and punishment, and foreign policy as well. Despite that, I'm a good-natured person. I simply think logic should be given a higher priority than emotion.
