Yeah, you'd have to be a dumb psychopath not to figure out that the golden rule is not only morally, but reasonably best for people as a group and as individuals. I think that's the biggest indictment of these willfully obtuse christians who assert either that it's an impossible puzzle to solve without god, or that theirs is the only religion to ever have it; the consequences are either that they themselves are dumb psychopaths, or that everyone else is.

... and the fact that the world hasn't dissolved into chaos even though it has a majority of non-Christian inhabitants pretty much removes the second option.
