I would tell them to step off.
And I would ask them by what sanctimonious right do they dare presume to moralise @me
And I would tell them that blind evolution had favored me with bigger fists and sharper teeth and more testosterone and to mind their own business or else they are gonna be next!
Then you are a terrible person. I empathize with my fellow human. We are a social species with empathetic views. Only the religious want to make us hate ourselves and I won't allow it. We are not perfect of course but when I see somebody harmed I feel their pain. I don't need anyone to tell me I need to help, I want to help. That is not religion, it is human.
