"Previously, I thought maybe it was morally useful for weak non-disease resistant beings to die and for the stronger members of the breed to survive and spread their greater genes."

That's your problem. :)

"Now I recognize that altruism and cooperation are "evolved traits" and useful parts of being human."

Not just human; cooperation can be found throughout the animal world.

"Strange how I get so easily confused on this matter. I wonder what keeps causing that? I hope it is not religion."

Probably just a lack of information.
