A priest and a Levite (both spiritual 'leaders' the nation of Israel), walked past the injured man on the opposite side of the road rather than turn aside to help him. (Luke 10:30-37)
A Priest- walked past him A levite- walked past him Good Samaritan- helped him
The priest, like the Levite, ignored the man completely and walked on.

This parable is not comparing ideologies, (although that would come into it), but answering the question of "who is your neighbour " . To put the parable in modern perspective, replace the 'good Samaritan' with 'good Arab' .
