The entry by &5678 eight years ago, showed that most our world's religions have this tenet as foundational. This is an important message to each of us, regardless of faith or location on the globe ... long Before the Common Era. Let's begin 2015 with this loving, kindness in our hearts and in our minds! Peace!

um...yeah, what she said...
the saying is actually supposed to be "do unto others as you would have others do unto you." THAT means...don't do something to anyone that you wouldn't want done to you...as well as, do something FOR someone that you would want done to you.

The Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
The Silver Rule: Do not do unto others as you would not have them do unto you.
The Bronze Rule: Do unto others as they've been doing unto you.
The Iron Rule: Do unto weaker people as you wish, while appeasing stronger people as you must.
The Jewish Rule: Deceive and flatter others, until you are strong enough to destroy them. Then do so and take their land, meanwhile lying to the rest of the world and selecting your next victim.

I think you have seriously misquoted that, but the jist of it is pretty much the law of karma. Don't do bad things to others or they'll happen to you. And if you were quoting the christian one, then its treat people the way in which you wish for them to treat you.

Do unto others BEFORE they do unto you?
