If you apply the golden rule to the issue of abortion, you see how absurd it is to claim abortion is murder. This is a quick little argument that occurred to me at this moment. I'll have to flesh it out later.
In order for a violation of the golden rule to take place, both parties in question must be capable of feeling that they have been wronged.
A fetus cannot feel being wronged.
Therefore, killing a fetus does not violate the golden rule.
