Why Jesus Is Too Awkward For Many Christians
<p>A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead.</p>
<p>A social justice activist happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side on his way to a march in support of Palestinian freedom.</p>
<p>So too, a conservative evangelical, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side on his way to a prayer meeting to pray for the peace of Israel.</p>
<p>But a Palestinian Muslim, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man in his own car, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out a pile of Israeli shekels and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’</p>
