The Good Samaritan is a parable from the Bible that talks about a man that was beat and robbed by some other men. Then a priest and a levite, two ‘good’ men from the day walked by without helping. Then a Samaritan, a low life from the time period came by and helped the man.
Tonight I was watching an ABC Special: What Would You Do? In which they made up certain bad situations to see how people would react. There was a part that hit this issue direct on. Very humbling really. The part I reference starts at 3:47.
