The Golden Rule is a Universalist example of wisdom\u2014it\u2019s a central principle in nearly all the world\u2019s religions.\u00a0 Yet it’s often violated, sometimes even in the name of those faiths and by their leaders.\u00a0 Understanding why requires a deep dive into where the Golden Rule fits best in human life.\u00a0 Its use depends on how we first define or frame our situation.\u00a0 Interactions can be thought of in two ways: as\u00a0finite<\/i>\u00a0or\u00a0infinite<\/i>.\u00a0 In finite activities, people compete, debate, fight; they seek to be winners when the activity ends.\u00a0 In infinite activities, there are no winners or losers, and participants want to keep enjoying the game for as long as possible.\u00a0 The Golden Rule is irrelevant in finite games; it\u2019s absolutely essential in infinite games.\u00a0 From this perspective, we illuminate the Golden Rule\u2019s role in enriching our lives.<\/p>\n
