Selfishness isn't inherently evil. It's just survival instinct.

We average out to slightly good. Very slightly. Always apply Hanlon's razor.

Humans are evil compared to what? As far as we know we are the only species capable of defining the word.

You are basically puritanical even if you don't realize it. You damn 99% of the world because you hate moral imperfection as you perceive it.

your statement is simplistic to the point of being meaningless. even absurd

what is the "average human"?
how are you defining "selfish" in this context?
how selfish does someone have to be for it to count as "evil"?

as far as I'm concerned, any possible answers to those questions are completely arbitrary. it's meaningless

That brief period of bliss between the fall of the Soviet Union and the various Balkan wars of the 1990s was pretty nice.
