The Golden Rule Movie ( Trailer)

Through self-directed explorations in art, music, rap and drama skits, teenage youth explore ways of embodying the core values of "The Golden Rule" ( Ethic of Reciprocity) of 13 of the World's great religious traditions. " Do unto others as you would have them do unto you..." propels the viewer on a journey of discovery, giving life to what many consider to be the most consistent moral teaching throughout history. The Golden Rule can be found in many religions, ethical systems, indigenous cultures and secular philosophies . A poster version ( developed at Scarboro Missions) hangs in the Vatican and at the United Nations, and is currently a world best seller.

President Barack Obama has referred to the Golden Rule in several of his addresses, as did President Kennedy in his famous Civil Rights speech.
