Abstract
Abstract The Golden Rule appears in two versions, the negative one viewed by Confucius as a moral prescription and the positive one viewed by Jesus as a religious prescription. Students in a sixth grade classroom in an American public school studied both versions, exploring the fundamental issues underlying them. After reviewing their investigation of the question, ‘How do I follow the Golden Rule, either in its positive or negative version?’, considerations follow regarding the different approaches to another question, ‘Should I follow the Golden Rule, either in its positive or negative version?’, within the context of a moral or a religious education programme.
