Arguing with you and wanting to change people's religious ideas - that could be seen as altruistic because I am trying to help people. On the other hand, I'm trying to improve the people around me so that they can provide a better world for me any my family to live in.


But I doubt that is your real motive.


What is my "real motive?" I think there are many motives.

I think that your effort to persuade me is because you genuinely want to help me. There is also an aspect that you think it will improve your own world, but I really think that there is a large element in which you are being genuinely altruistic with no motive for reward. And if you search your feelings deep down, I think you will see that I am right.
