Golden Rule Flaws?

[Theofane]

My point wasn't to discredit the Golden Rule. My point was to wonder whether the Golden Rule can or cannot be applied to moral situations that are not human-human interaction.

Also...I consider myself a Christian. Scrutiny and skepticism are virtues in my books.

Your icon identifies you as a Christian Seeker. Scrutiny isn't a virtue as far as Christianity is concerned, nor is skepticism. If you are a Christian after all, I suggest you change your icon accordingly.
