Created by chemicals with no aspect of non-materialism?

I don’t need a god to to tell me it’s wrong to hurt people. I simply have no desire to hurt people. And if I did hurt someone (and I have), I feel badly about it. I try to make reparations as best I can, and not make the same mistakes going forward. It’s not a mystery, and it’s no different than what you think your god is telling you to do.
What is empathy. Forget the word, describe it's reality.
Kemikal is right. Science proved that every tiny emotion you feel (even love) is triggered by chemicals in the brain; that's how drugs like LSD control people and control masses.
Adrenaline makes you a violent, uncontrollable prick, dopamine makes your reward center in the brain cycles; so all of us are "addicts" in one way or another.
There is no non-materialism in feeling the emotion.
As side note; this verse from the Quran implicitly discusses adrenaline rush:
Quote:Sura 48, The Quran:
( 26 ) When those who disbelieved had put into their hearts chauvinism - the chauvinism of the time of ignorance. But Allah sent down His tranquillity upon His Messenger and upon the believers and imposed upon them the word of righteousness, and they were more deserving of it and worthy of it. And ever is Allah, of all things, Knowing.
