If you get your morality from a book then it's you who people should be concerned about.
Can you elaborate on how every fucking person does that? What scientific evidence do you have that guide us what is good and what is bad. For example we have evidence about certain foods that could lead to diabetes or heart disease etc... However at what point do you decide what is morally good behaviour and what is morally wrong behaviour.
It might serve you well to pick up a book on Sociobiology and form your own opinion. Scores of animals that are much lower on the evolutionary tree than humans MUST adhere to social "rules" because it is key to their very survival. It's not a big leap to see how, over hundreds of millions of years the course of evolution has resulted in a hardwired code of morality that is crucial to our survival. If you are of the school of thought of "nature vs. nurture" then you would probably give alot of credit to one's upbringing. It's pretty simple, don't overthink the problem.

I am glad you are doing good work and helping others.
As a theist, I am quite curious as to how you determine right and wrong? For example if I had 4 friends and we loved each other so much and wanted to be in a polygamous marriage, would you fight the good fight and fight for our right to be married to those we love?
Whatever floats your boat as long as you are all of legal age, sound mind, and agree to enter into the bond without coercion.
