How Should We Treat Others?
50 Answers
Perhaps the best-known statement in that sermon is the one that is often called the Golden Rule. It has to do with how we treat others. “Just as you want men to do to you, do the same way to them,” said Jesus. (Luke 6:31)

naomi it is proper to cover over arrangements for the work that God commands us to do. (Matt 5:3)
The truthfulness of some of Jesus’ statements needs little explanation. Who will deny that a mild-tempered, merciful, and peaceable person motivated by a pure heart will be happier, than the angry, belligerent, merciless person will ever be.

It calls to mind the principle long ago stated by a wise king: “For everything there is an appointed time, even a time for every affair under the heavens: . . . a time to love and a time to hate.” (Eccl. 3:1, 3)
Even as it would be a mistake to enforce the demands of strict justice when the facts allow for mercy to be shown, so it would be a mistake to yield to sentiment when the facts dictate that strict justice should be enforced.
So there is a time for the head and a time for the heart.

I'm the same, TWR. When we had gales here our bins, put out for collection had blown broken glass everywhere. Due to insomnia, I was up at 4am, picking glass out of the road and putting peoples bins in safer places, so that they didn't get blown over again. I was thanked by everyone in the street except for the JW's - couple living opposite and both my immediate neighbours, to be exact.
I've always wanted to ask a JW - Why do you think you're better than other people? You never want to talk to 'unbelievers' unless you're on my doorstep, telling me the 'good news' and saying that "we have to talk". You don't want to talk, unless I'm interested in converting to your sick religion. You would rather that your child died, because that is God's will, than supply them with a blood transfusion? Is that because your own blood may not be compatible with the childs, so you'd need blood from a non-JW?
The bible was written by a bunch of men, hundreds of years after Jesus died. Do you not think that it was corrupted to suit their own ideas?
It turns out that Mary Magdelene was not a prostitute, but Jesus' favourite apostle. On the cross, he said that his favourite was there. Everyone interpreted this to mean James because, surely, he couldn't be talking about a woman! A sarcophagus was found, opened and found to contain Mary's writings, which should have been included in the bible, but the men decided not only to ignore her contribution, but to destroy her image and her reputation by turning her into a prostitute! I'm sure that Jesus would have been delighted that his best friend, (and some believe, wife), was subjected to this appalling treatment.
