I've always been curious about the concepts of morality, compassion, empathy and charity in humans. Since all of those things work against the advancement of the species and "survival of the fittest" why didn't "natural selection" weed those ideas (weaknesses) out?

I don't think a lion or ape that engaged in self-sacrifice would last long so how did the concepts of morality and compassion originate in man?

That seems to me to be a major black hole in the theory of evolution.

Weakness?

People that co-operate and live in peace tend to have more children live.
