Does a man of good conscience help the less fortunate or does he mock them?
To me, the answer is obvious,

I have received a complaint about hijacking in this thread. I haven't followed it for a while, but see it has drifted from one person's hobby to feed the homeless to sodomy in male homeless shelters.

For now, I'm issuing a warning to keep the topic directly on feeding the homeless. Let's also keep it family friendly.

What if he does both?

Mockery can be good. It disrupts habits of thought and helps us see things from a different perspective. You're experiencing that here, and before this discussion you may not have understood why some people might think your benevolent acts have a downside, but I think everyone is doing a reasonable job in explaining it. I'm not sure if anything we are capable of is unalloyed good or bad, and no one is capable of analyzing the effects of his actions from all different perspectives. It takes someone yelling at us "What the hell do you think you're doing?" to understand how someone else experiences our actions, sometimes.

If it makes a difference to you, I don't think the way you are spoken to here sometimes is called for.
