    Vincent, I was raised Roman Catholic, but for me I found spirituality that appealed to me in metaphysical and new age religions.
    If a religion or church isn’t following the golden rule then why be a part of it? People would be more tolerant and accepting if they behaved towards others the way that they wanted to be treated.
    Jesus was inclusive, tolerant and accepting of people’s differences and status in life. He spoke with the Samaritan woman at Jacob’s well when Jews were not supposed to socially interact. He ate with tax collectors and sinners. He healed the insane and the Roman centurion’s servant. He associated with the very lowest on the social ladder.
    Please consider the following words from Rod McKuen, (not an exact quote, but close). "It does not matter who you love or how you love, but that you love. The good in man is God made manifest and loving is the contribution to that good and to that only God. For in the end the act of loving anyone is the act of loving God.”

      @@JamesMC04 Undermining the fact that the bible is called "the living word of God" in the book to the Hebrew, and that it does not need added knowledge to be understood. It speaks to all generations of all time, thus, the historical context does not matter. God does not change, and neither does the nature of sin. Sin is sin, no matter the age, and the law is the law, no matter the context
      (matthew 5:17 - 20 : 17 Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.)
