Mastodon/The Fediverse unlike fakebook and twatter is like an exercise in self reflection. Social media can be used to make you better. #pma #platinumrule #community #wegotthis

Heard of the #goldenrule? Well, here comes #platinum :-) Let's takek this an important step further:

That's called Special Pleading. How do you know God can't be defined or detected? And if it can't, how do you know what you experienced is real?

Also, the good you described isn't exclusive to religion. #Humanism, for example, is a philosophy that holds to the idea of doing good for the sake of good (see the #PlatinumRule). No god or religion required.

Plenty of suffering has been/is being caused in the name of religion, so it's far from a stellar example of a source of good.

@SrRochardBunson Nice poem. Everything here, except the mention of holiness and temples, is stuff found in #Humanism. "Treat others as they want to be treated."

Why look for those "temples," when you have the power to simply create your own?

"Treat others as they would want to be treated." –#PlatinumRule of #Humanism

I am a huge proponent of the #platinumrule. What is that you ask? To ask how another person would like to be treated and then to treat them that way accordingly.
