By all means do good deeds, just don't expect to get a bj from it.

Everything is selfish, don't worry about it AAHZ. For there to be action, there has to be a motivation, and all motivation acts on internal desires. To say, "doing good should be done just because" undermines the cause, because it denies the existance of the inherent value (to self) in the action... which is the whole reason it's "good" in the first place.

Do good deeds because they are good, I agree.
To say that you aren't rewarded for doing them is wrong though. People who do good, are better people than those who do not.

Of course Professor Chaos is Butters' reaction to the realisation that being nice and good is futile, as he just gets shat on from all directions, most of all by the parents who beat him into being good in the first place.
