Selfishness is a trait. It has nothing to do with evolution, nor genes. It has everything to do with reasons for existence.

Common mistake, that is most certainly not what the “selfish gene” is. Please read the book…

I don’t need to read a book written by somebody you believe in to prove me wrong. I made a statement based on what I know, and, Just like the book you read, your choice is to believe it or not.
Just to say, like you have shown in your comment, don’t take everything you read as true, even when written by a ‘deity’ or ‘hero’. One persons belief is another person’s disbelief. I choose differently.
