I guess we can agree to disagree. Creation myths were old when that line was penned, so it's not like that was even a new idea. >> Which is fine until you meet a psychopath who has a different idea about the whole "do unto others" thing. The golden rule is advice for one's own behaviour. I'd be quite surprised if any psychopath would ever consider themselves bound by it. However, I should treat anyone, even the psychopath, as I would wish to be treated - so the advice holds for me. The golden rule is not something which may be imposed on others!
