You keep saying that, but you have no valid proof, aside from your OWN frame of mind, as to whether that is true. Have you considered that Selfishness is Earned through life, and isn’t a foregone conclusion from birth? If you still don’t buy it, then you should realize that you are arguing the point of Original Sin, and just using “Selfishness” in it’s stead.

You are sounding quite a bit like SWC in this thread

Giving the nutrients in food to others? Or to yourself?
Are you entirely sure that you are making sense? Are you trying to say that the very essence of the human body is to live, and therefore it does anything it can to do that? Therefore Life is Selfish in it’s need to live at any cost? if not, explain, if SO remember that the ability to Choose, is what seperates Humanity from Animaliatic instinct (or the animalistic aspects of life)
I am unselfish when I Choose to be, and my life is about Choosing to be unselfish whenever I can
If you doubt that is possible, then change your signature “Agnosticism gives me choice. Choice gives me freedom”

Choice is based on your background, and heritage. And YES!!!!! Life, not only humans, but all life is selfish. The immature beings of life don’t live long. The mature ones do. They have evolved enough to know exactly what they need to survive longer. Our body was built to be selfish. We eat to keep OURSELVES alive. etc. And don’t tell me what to say about my signature. If SWC can have that stupid lie for his signature, I can have mine. And if you choose to disagree with it, that’s your choice. But it’s my choice as to what I say and don’t say.
