Noticing a trend...................................


Surely it is the maxim of loving-kindness:  Do not unto others what you would not have done unto you.
-Confucius (551-479 BCE)

This is the sum of duty:  Do naught unto others which would cause you pain if done to you.
-Mahabharata (400 BCE-200 CE)

No one of you is a believer until he desires for his brother that which he desires for himself.
-Islamic saying

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.
-Matthew 7:12  King James Bible

 What is hateful to yourself, do not do to your fellow man. That is the whole Torah; the rest is just commentary. Go and study it."
- Rabbi Hillel, Talmud Shabbat 31a
