Ummm... I'm so tempted to stay out of this one! But...

We are talking about the Golden Rule here. As far as I know, it's been around for at least 2000 years. People have tried living it for that long. People have also interpreted it to their own purposes or simply understand it in different ways. Regardless, it's a good way to try to live.

If someone misses the mark, it's because we are all human and given to imperfections of all kinds. It's wrong to believe that we can hit the mark every time. Wouldn't that be a mental illness, too, BTW?

All we can do is try our best in everything. If we blow it, we know that if we ask, God will forgive. If we ask, He'll help us do better next time.

Do I hear an "Amen"?
