Edit: Non the less on the contraversy, Harm Non is practiced in this guild (including emotional harm). Anyone brakes it without fixing and repenting will be banned. I don't want to, but I will not have my members hurt. Please take care of one another like family. I know I concider all of you family.

Everyone has heard the frase "The golden rule."
This started from the one rule that almost every religon in the world shares:

Harm Non

In one form or another it's there. There are some exceptions of course. Some religons are bent on distruction instead of self improvement. The world needs all kinds of people.

Harm non. Such a simple rule, and yet it sums up so much. Keep this in mind.

You kidding right? Tell us something we don't know. Why all the basic crap in here now? It's just taking away from your time to write everything else we WANT to know.

I'm not sure many religions have that rule, actually. A few have "don't kill" but I'm not sure whether they mean "don't murder" or "don't kill people of our tribe, but that tribe over the hill is fine to kill" or something like that.

Many Pagan religions don't have that rule, anyway. wink Wicca in particular has advice that suggests you can do what you want if you harm no one, but in no way does it forbid harm.

Good looking out. 3nodding But I don't know, every one I can think of has some, in some way or another, something writen about how others shouldn't be harmed or they should be treated like you do, ect. I can't think of enough to fill my right had that don't have something along those lines. I'm not saying your wrong, and I'm not saying I'm right. I do know the origonal pagans (the one's acctually from the earth not the one's that build stone henge with slaves.) Believed in treating fairly. Everything started going wrong when killing in the name of religon started. I don't know who started it. I know the first recording was the Hebrew? I think. But who know's how far back it goes.

What's the equivalent of "harm none" in Hellenismos?
Asatru?
Each form of Celtic Recon?
Thelema?
Wicca?
Kemetic Recon?
Vodou?
Santeria?
Religio Romana?

(I mean, the Romans went out kicking a** across Europe and were generally unpleasant to most people they considered Barbarians. They kept slaves. Sure they could have disobeyed the laws of their religion, but I'd still like to see what the law was.)

I've never heard of original pagans. I mean theoretically the existed but you know what I mean. Are we talking, like, Africa?

Not saying there isn't an equivalent in many or most religions, just wondering what they are. Because I have no idea.
