The Golden Rule
HINDU: This is the sum of duty; do naught unto others which if done to thee would cause thee pain.
ZOROASTRIAN: That nature alone is good which refrains from doing unto another whatsoever is not good for itself.
TAOIST: Regard your neighbour's gain as your own gain, and your neighbour's loss as your own loss.
BUDDHIST: Hurt not others in ways that you would find hurtful.
CONFUCIAN: Do not unto others what you would not have them do unto you.
JAIN: In happiness and suffering, in joy and grief, we should regard all creatures as we regard our own self.
JEWISH: Whatever thou hatest thyself, that do not to another.
CHRISTIAN: All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.
ISLAMIC: No one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself.
SIKH: As thou deemest thyself, so deem others.

The golden rule is so true in all beliefs. If I could follow it all the time instead of just most of the time life would be much better for all. Thanks for posting this for all of us.

Do to others, as you would want others to do to you.
Common sense.
People need to think before they act on petty stuff and to think before they act. to many "act now, ask questions later" people out there. doesn't matter what religion you are, have respect for others as you would respect yourself.
thanx for sharing bel
