THE SILVER RULE IS ARISTOCRATIC (TRUE), THE GOLEN RULE IS SOCIALIST (FALSE)

Christianity has it backwards you know. The golden rule is stated from a slave’s perspective: “do to others as you would have done to you”. This implies equality that can never exist except among the destitute. It is also not very useful for complex societies.

The anglo saxon version is the correct one: “never do to others that which you would not have done to you.” (AEthelbert).

I cannot know or achieve equality. I can never know what to do. I can however, know what NOT to do.

This is true for any theoretical construct.

The golden rule is false, and the silver rule is true, for these reasons.
