Doing a bit of parroting yourself, Terrence? <g> Charity is praiseworthy. Altruism is to be condemned. Cf. following passage from essay, "Ayn Rand and Objectivism: An Introduction." Objectivism rejects altruism, the theory that the most noble of actions are those that benefit others by means of the sacrifice of one's own values....Now, actions intended to benefit others may well be simply benevolent, or expressions of compassion or charity, which are good. fullcontext.org
