[QUOTE="Fantine, post: 76843857, member: 114159"] Before his death Theologian Hans Kung worked to develop a global ethic. It is interesting that all the cultures of the world have an ethic that is a variation of the Golden Rule--to do unto others as you would have them do unto you. And this is where the Religious Right has gone politically astray--managing to offend all the faiths in the world. Is the Golden Rule part of their legislation? A Baptist missionary wrote in a mission magazine that in India their church should not waste money on hospitals or healing but on schools--because conversion is their objective instead of compassion. (I had a part time pianist job at a Baptist Church at one time and got their magazines.) I was horrified. I hope it is not typical. I found the congregants at the church I played at to be personally charitable but unlikely to follow through in their voting. . [/QUOTE]
