What Would Jesus Do?

I wonder if our compassion for people who are less fortunate than ourselves is hard wired into our DNA?

When others read the Bible they focus on the "end times" and the need to destroy one's enemies (other religions). I can only assume, but I believe these folks find comfort in knowing that they are "special" people who are destined to rule the world now and to be hand picked by God when the end times come.
