Didn’t catch the whole ‘Golden Rule’ bit about not doing to others what they didn’t do to you?
Unfortunately, it is you that doesn't understand the concept of the "Golden Rule" as you have twisted from what is said to what you wanted it to say.
It is do unto others as you would want them to do to you.
The prohibitve form similar to what you have cited is more found in Confucianism and Islam.
Yep, that's it, all right.
Too bad you can't open your eyes and see that Judiasm is currently doing *TO* you what they would like to see others (you) do to them. And you ain't returning their behavior back unto them.
They leave you alone to worship your religion... and so, according to the Golden Rule, want that same behavior returned unto them.
You would them short-circuit that and give unto them the actions they would not want and have not demonstrated out unto the world.
God be with you.
