Why do some people have such a hard time believing that a person can be an atheist AND be a compassionate person too?

I was in a brief scuffle with a conservative over universal health care. I said I’d be more than happy to pay more in taxes so that everyone could be covered.
I said “But that’s me, a bleeding heart, compassionate atheist for you!”
She almost choked! “Compassionate and atheist don’t belong in the same sentence!!” She yelled.
I asked why not, but she hasn’t answered.
Why would someone feel this way?
