It seems to me that it only makes sense if there is something other than just socialization and natural selection involved that leads us to our altruistic views. If that is the case, which of course I do, then it seems reasonable to conclude that whatever or whoever is behind that sense of altruism would hold at least the same level of compassion and caring that we do.
Is there a logical fallacy based around hope?
If so, then I think you have committed it.
Unfortunately, hope is not enough to successfully justify your position.
There are also other problems with your statement:
"It seems to me": argument from ignorance.
"that it only makes sense": argument from incredulity.
"whoever is behind that sense of altruism would hold at least the same level of compassion and caring that we do": non sequitor.
There are probably others.
But whatever gets you through your day, I guess.
