The basic message to Love thy neighbor is in all of the Gospels of the New Testament, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John and in various Epistles, one of my favorite scriptures is Matthew, chapter 22, verses 36 thru 40. When the Pharisees were trying to trip Jesus into speaking in a way that would allow them to call him a blasphemer and put him in prison or to death.

There are many translations of the bible and they all read a little bit differently. The King James Version gives Matthew 7:12 this way:
7:12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

It is the golden rule, but it's a common misconception that it's not scriptural. It's in Matthew 7:12.

The answer to your question is found in Luke chapter 6: 27-31
27 "But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28 "bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.
29 "To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either.
30 "Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back.
31 "And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.

...There is a 'twist' to this phrase in "Scientology" I think it goes something like:
Do unto others as they can take it. In other words..always being kind when its warranted but not getting stepped on by those who treat you poorly.

umm...
the Bible says, "Love thy neighboor as thyself", and people have made it the "Golden Rule" by pepping it up a little- "Do unto others what you would want others to do unto you."

That is not dirsect scripture from the Bible, but it may have stemmed from "Love your neighbor as you would love yourself" in Leviticus

that's not the complete phrase. It really goes . . . "Do unto other what you would want other to do unto you . . . unless they are gay."
