One Thing Americans Can Agree On? The Golden Rule

In a country rife with divisions, here's one thing Americans agree on, whether young or old, Christian or secular, Democrat or Republican: the value of the golden rule. A new survey from Deseret News and The Marist Poll showed that 92% of U.S. adults say the call to "do unto others as they would do unto you" is a "very necessary" or "necessary" part of their personal lives. Strong levels of support for the golden rule can be found in every major faith group, at every education level and in every generation.
