Not sure. I find it hard to calculate what causes the most suffering overall over time. If Nazis were the only ones feeding the hungry, would it be better to let the poor starve or support Nazis and end up with a holocaust. Difficult conundrum.
I just hope we never reach such a stage where the only people ever willing to help anyone are harmful ideologies and their supporters. I hope that human empathy and a decent socialist state would be enough.
What is clear, though, is that religion is harmful, feeding the poor is good, and you can do one without the other and so should ideally aim for that. On that we can agree, at least, yes?
