Sadly, one sees little interest for this in today's society. Mankind has been taught well to ignore its plight, and walk in utter disregard of its own pain. This has become the norm.
This universal disinterest in spiritual principles, if one can still call it disinterest, is not natural. It has been artificially generated. In Christ Jesus' parable the Samaritan represents the natural reaction. Whatever reflects spirituality is the natural reflection of human nature, because man is a spiritual being. If this spirituality is missing, so that the only person who still stays the course becomes an isolated leader, then something is deeply wrong and humanity is grave danger.
To develop, to protect, to uplift, are the natural tendencies of man. By it, mankind has worked its way out of the stone ages. During the last two centuries, this natural tendency has been artificially reversed. Today, people are told that the level of prosperity that was once achieved, it can no longer be repeated - we have no money. The irony is, that money is not a natural resource that can be depleted. It is entirely an artificial product. Poverty is artificially created by an intentional dislocation of this artificial resource for the 'benefit' of those who have to power to do so. The Venetian merchant oligarchy had developed this process into a fine art. This oligarchy existed by clever processes of stealing, because its island bound existence did not allow large scale productive enterprises.
This policy of clever stealing grew out of the useful process of mercantile trading, which became more and more exploitative, increasingly high handed, until it became escalated into outright financial looting. This is the background out of which the British Empire was born after the Venetian's left their home base, and transplanted themselves to the north. The new Empire's highest public relations priority, of course, has always been to protect its practice of looting, later called "privilege" of looting. Today, the oligarchy has given itself the privilege to control the world's money supply and to impose its interest demands at will to its best advantage, no matter who is hurt thereby.
As a self-protective gesture, the Empire even allows society to take part in the game, to some degree, to legitimize the process. This is how the tendency was created to regard the Samaritan's response as unnatural, as exceptional. Some may even call it foolish. This is also how the tendency developed that prevents society from defending itself. When society is told that poverty is necessary because there is no money, no one disagrees. It stands ready to lay itself down to die, rather than to assert its spirituality and develop, protect, and uplift itself, by creating its own money as is needed for the necessary development to take place that assures its continued existence. Ironically, instead of doing this, the modern society literally looks away from its own plight.
This ironic tendency is a cleverly cultured effect created by the British Empire that has become the greatest feudal Empire on the planet. Its financial system has become the global system. Its system is doomed to disintegrate, just as Napoleon was doomed the moment he set foot on Russian soil. In either case, the large scale looting that is required to support the system cannot be carried out indefinitely without destroying the host that supports the parasitism, which has now become global in scale.
Still, the primary failure lies in the society's own neglect of the spirituality that is so fundamental to its civilization and existence. It must even be said that society would gain nothing if it could miraculously eliminate the forces of the Empire. Without spirituality to motivate its self-development, and its natural self-protection, even its scientific self-ennoblement, any society would continue to be fascist and imperially oriented in its pursuits, and embrace looting as a legitimate process for individuals to advance themselves.
