Despite years of sermons to the contrary, we are not our brother’s keeper, in the sense of being a zookeeper. We are to seek our brother’s best interests, and in that sense we are his keeper, but, when he disagrees with us about what is best, we are not generally to try as individuals to coerce him into our way of behaving. We are our brother’s brother (or sister).
