Would you kindly explain how you deduced that selfishness is better as far as making friends is concerned?

No qualms about decieving them. I don't see any reasons why it impedes the friend-making process, so any benefit tips the scales.
Then your initial argument (that halting the thread would benefit me) was flawed.

Many have. Dante surpassed me on an intellectual level, for example.

Certainly, that is your view. Nobody persuedes you, It is rather like talking to a brick wall.

So, have you ever lost a debate. Perhaps you could explain how they persueded you.

If anybody persuades me that I am wrong then I have not lost the debate - I simply agree with them and stop fighting. That is not defeat.

Yes, but you assume the latter to be true. This is not logical.

I fail to see how that statement was petulant. Being self-less would likely result from moral beliefs, since you hold none you really wouldn't understand.

Your perception of morality is strange indeed. You assume that I have never been guided by morals?

Not global, just common - and they vary from place to place. The term 'generic' was perfectly apt.
