Altruism is the act of selflessly helping others without any expectation of reward or benefit. However, the question remains whether true altruism actually exists or if it is simply a myth. Some argue that even seemingly selfless acts are ultimately motivated by the desire for personal gain, such as social recognition or a sense of moral satisfaction. Additionally, evolutionary biology suggests that altruism may have originated as a survival mechanism for the species, meaning that even apparently selfless acts may have an underlying benefit to the individual or their kin. #qa #philosophical
