I question if they are helping anyone. Who decides if someone is drunk? Do they want help, do they want some middle aged berk telling them about some made up claptrap about some god who will help them but watch 20,000 children die of hunger 365 days a year?
Its just too silly and is more about assuaging their christian guilt than helping anyone

No it's not. If there were sober people about in the early hours of the morning whose job is specifically to make sure people who are too drunk to look after themselves get home in one piece, there's every chance deaths like that one could have been avoided. Yes, they are helping people. If somebody can barely stand up without support and has no idea where they are, they're evidently going to need help getting home. What happens when there's no one to help them? Why do you assume it's a "middle aged berk telling them up some made up claptrap about god"? Why isn't it a group of young people looking out for other young people and just making sure they get home? You're confusing religious preaching with assisting drunk people in getting home. Why does it bother you so much if somebody's doing it for their own Christian beliefs? If it helps them sleep at night and helps someone else get home at night then I don't really see what the issue is.
