So...the “conservative Christian” interpretation of Jesus doesn’t help beggars? The Good Samaritan should have continued on his merry way because the injured fellow was probably just faking his injuries?

I guess we read different Bibles.

It’s one thing to help an individual who truly needs help...

But it’s so foolish to hand money over to someone that you think is homeless because you feel some sort of “Christian” guilt.

Especially when there are many wonderful charities that do a terrific job helping those in real need. But handing money to the homeless almost always enables them to continue with their drinking/drug addiction.

My Bible also includes verses like Mark 14:7, Ezekiel 7:19, John 12:5 and Acts 3:6.
