Great ideas. I’ve frequently noticed that The Golden Rule does not apply uniformly to everyone because everyone sees it from their own perspective. If someone doesn’t know how to herself well then how can she be expected to treat others well. People also have vastly different ideas of what treating someone else well is. One person’s well is another’s insult. Perhaps the key to a healthy Golden Rule is to always treat people with empathy and accept them no matter where they are in life.

Take care,

Guy

How do you know that Jesus knew humans didn’t have the gift of mind reading? Are you reading his mind?

My comment is in no way attempting to disrespect Jesus. I fully believe he is the Son of God.

When Jesus spoke the Golden Rule, he knew humans didn’t have the gift of mind-reading. That’s why he didn’t say “Do unto others as they would like done unto them.”

It’s pretty bold to say the Son of God got things wrong, don’t you think? After all, do you know of anyone else who’s grave is empty?

Ah, the mighty sword of empathy! Well done Sir!

I spend a lot of time with my Personal Defense classes teaching verbal defuse tactics, and that is probably one of the biggest difficulties I have. Defeating the Golden Rule! Imagine a good Catholic boy like me saying that out loud?

Getting out of your own head to help solve the problems of another, or affect things in a positive way requires far more intake than output.

Doesn’t it all still come back into relevance when we change the Others Do Unto You, and put it into the context that you have so eloquently stated.

Great read guys, I needed that reminder this morning!
