Oh you must be new to Earth. Welcome! So humans have been doing this thing called reciprocity, which is a mutual or cooperative interchange of favors or privileges. That means if you help someone, they're likely to help you when you're in need.
What you're talking about doesn't sound like duty.
Regardless, you haven't explained why you believe reciprocity is a duty.
These are not easy questions for the average person to answer, and I'm woefully average. I'm going to take the lazy approach and refer you to a real philosopher. Look up Peter Singer. If you have further questions, then I'd recommend starting from the ground up in a philosophy 101 course, maybe sprinkle some religious studies in there, and don't forget eastern philosophy/religion. That should bring you up to speed.
Pfft.
LOL that's very presumptuous.
Sooo... do you think you don't have any duty to your fellow humans?
You didn't answer my question.
