I didn't gloss over it on purpose, I just don't understand what you're getting at. I can read between the lines, and I can tell your accusation that people are using the word "Samaritan" wrong is very important to you. However I only hear people say "Good Samaritan" only in the context as in someone helping out when no one else will or helping a total stranger. Maybe people who you know say "Samaritan" when they mean "Good Samaritan." Perhaps this grates your nerves. However it's something I have not encountered. Don't feel ignored. I hear you bro, just understand that this flagrant misuse of Samaritan is a new concept to me.
The point is not about its usage, it's about
the Philistines. It was only an anecdote to show how whether 2000 years ago or today, people always think the other group, the outside group is uncultured. Even in this microcosm of the universe called "Music Banter."
