...Schneidet sich durch Engelsscharen.

[A cry will ascend to heaven
It will cut through hosts of angels.]

What keeps someone from saving another? Why does one not act when another's life is in danger or they are injured?

I could not imagine a person not wanting to help another person like that. Only reason why I could even think of a person not wanting to help another human being is utter evil and pure heartless.

and fear, like writer_gurl said. Although most of us don't think about that at the time. Our first reaction is just to save. A healthy dose of fear is good, just don't go overboard.

Ummm....if the other person is in danger...humans have an instinct for self preservation. Sometimes people get past that instinct and act, sometimes they simply can't.

That doesn't make them evil or heartless.

Adreanalin hits different people in different ways, some actually become "stunned" and can't mentally function... In other cases it kicks in and allows them to do things that they couldn't normally do.

I don't know, I just can not imagine not reaching out to help a fellow human.
