actually I would not consider it a religious construct since most religions say that they are the "one and only", and if you are not "one of us" then you will burn in the fiery pits of hell for all eternity plus, in the bible, you can stone your daughter to death for sex out of wedlock also, according to the bible, it's okay to own slaves the list is endless of the barbaric crap in the name of "religion"... yes we have improved over time... but the golden rule is perfect in its simplicity... as opposed to the many religions that produce people who are intolerant of differences and/or those who don't belong to their religion lots of religious organizations do very good works, with charities and such... my biggest concern is the politicians who wear their religion on their sleeve and give their holier than thou sermons... there's a very good reason this country was founded on the separation of church and state... worship whatever you want but don't try to force it on other people, and don't try to make laws based on religious quackery
