On The Golden Rule

Do to Others...

Published on May 2, 2008 By erathoniel In Philosophy

The Golden Rule is the best way to live, second to a truly Biblical life. The Golden Rule is a guideline simply stating: "Do to others as you would have them do to you."

So, consider this. Have you broken the Golden Rule? It a prerequisite of respect.

So what if you want to die? Should you kill others?

Have I broken the Golden Rule? Probably. It's a good thing too 'cause I can be pretty freaky.

Overall though, I treat people how I want to be treated. If I start talking out the wrong end, I want people to let me know. If I start stating opinion or belief as objective fact, I want people to call me on that. I generally don't go out of my way to tell people their wrong unless they are doing the same to others or "my" people. Actually, I probably follow the brimstone rule, returning like with like, that way everybody gets what they deserve.

If I'd do unto others as I'd have them do unto me...well, I'd be a convicted sex offender.
