I was here...
Czarinas Knife sweatdrop um, why cant it be a baby? ![User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show. User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings.

Have you ever been around a baby? They're the most selfish things ever. They just want attention, food, new diapers, etc. constantly. They also don't have a developed sense of compassion or anything (they have a primative one - there was a study where babies listened to recordings of crying and they cried when they heard a different babie's cry, showing sympathetic reactions, and ignored their own, thus showing that they have both a general sense of self and sympathy, but nothing fully developed.) and therefore are unable to be "selfless."
As far as innocence goes...well, that's all relative, isn't it?
...and then I was gone.

isnt that all just a way to survive---i mean thats an animals basic instinct, is it not?
Fine, babies are selfish. yes, ive seen it, but it only gets worse. From a babie to the point you become fully grown, your probably 100% more selfish than you were when you were a child.
Innocence, to me, is not being acountable for your actions. How can a babie, an infant, be accountable for crying when hungry? or calling for attention?
Besides, when you get older, yea, you know and might have compassion and caring and the like---but do we always use it? Nope. Having it doesnt mean your more innocent, and not having it doesnt mean you arent.
So how are we capable of selflessness? If babies just have primitave compassion, and we can ignore ours, then selflessness is unatinable, because the focus will eventually, shift to us.
