The problem is, when the pope castigates Congress for their inhumanity, each member thinks he is talking about someone else, not them.

Catholism’s Golden Rule ? Jesus wasn’t a Catholic, TPM.

While technically true, the Catholic Church was founded as the world’s greatest tribute to a single person, namely Jesus, so arguing that what Jesus said doesn’t apply to Catholics isn’t going to gain much traction.

My point is that it’s Christianity 's Golden Rule and that it doesn’t apply only to Catholics.

JESUS: And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.

And btw, pretty much every culture has a form of it. Jews, in our minor-key way, of course put it in the negative. From Hillel:

What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. That is the whole Torah, the rest is commentary.

Do unto others, don’t do unto others; it’s pretty much the essential basis of civilization.
