No expert here, but I have studied and read about most religions over the years
and the majority have the same thread running through them,
"treat others the way you would want to be treated", being the main theme.
While human nature is basically self centered ," I want what I want when I want it",there seems to be a human need for goodness in most people and the Golden Rule is the way to find it.
There are certain truths in this life that can't be denied, however they need to be put into practice.
Give me a world any day that practices the Golden Rule rather than letting human nature rule it. If you look hard enough you will find all things have flaws where man is involved, including religion, but you don't throw out the baby with the bath water.
Just my humble opinion.
