The parable of the 2-Kingdomites

And behold, a seminarian stood up to put him to the test, saying, “Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” He said to him, “What is written in the Law? How do you read it?” And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?” Jesus replied, “Darryl Hart was taking a shortcut through an alley when he heard an aborted baby crying in a dumpster, behind the clinic. And when he heard the baby, he said to himself, ‘I mustn’t interfere, for that would dilute the spirituality of the church.’ So he passed by on the other side. So likewise Steve Zrimec, when he took a shortcut through the alley and heard the baby, said to himself, ‘I musn’t intervene, for that would confound cult and culture.’ So he passed by on the other side. But Abraham Kuyper, as he took a shortcut through the alley, had compassion on the baby. He took him home, hired a nanny and a wet-nurse to care for him. And he lobbied the legislature pass a law banning abortion. Which of these three, do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the baby?” He said, “The one who showed him mercy.” And Jesus said to him, “You go, and do likewise.”
