Maybe I misunderstand you, but ...
I would argue that it is evolution that causes man, "ego" and any
apparent conflicts, not man himself. "Humanity" as a kingdom, with all
of the attendant 'difficulties' is part and parcel of the great plan. In
the course of normal human development, selfishness is supposed to
happen. Nobody is to be blamed for it.
