Altruism is when you place your top priorities below something else that won't positively effect you. When you lose yourself in group thinking, your top priority is the group.

I see that you put a person's group as their kin, I can understand that. But the way we spoke of kin was different because I meant it as people who are genetically similar to an individual while you meant it as their family (Not necessarily genetically similar). Not saying one of us is wrong, but I think we're both right.

Ah, so Price was his name, I'm glad you know of him/found him.

I agree that machines -as we know them- can't be altruistic, but I think it's because they have no choice in their actions. They're programmed to do something and that's what they'll do.

I agree about Ougai. Fuminori only accepted Saya because her looks let him see her personality. Ougai accepted her for what he saw on the inside while being able to see her true looks. He was the best person, because he wasn't so close-minded.

I'm not arguing with you, I'm simply stating the way I understand things. You seem to be a very nice, intelligent, and open-minded person and I'm glad you've shown how you see things. I think these types of talks help improve everyone who reads and participates in them.

Nice boat, armpits, cheddar cheese, kero.
