Maybe you haven't read through the other much longer thread that this has spun off of, Ammi.
Either way and taking that into consideration, like I said, trying to transpose the written values of the Samaritans onto every aspect of everyone's lives as some sort of gold standard, and retorting with "well thank god you're not a Samaritan!" to anyone with an alternative perspective ... is pious.
