Ambassador Rivers was asked what is the importance of the Golden Rule? Ambassador Rivers explained, “My message embraces the point that every individual person alive has value. As a matter of fact, if every individual were able to live out his or her particular contribution to society, our world would be a better place. It would be a place where the fulfillment of the needs of nations would be met because every person’s gift would be a contribution to the success of those nations. The open door to this kind of Culture of Honor is the Golden Rule Global Ethic – “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” This ethic lifts everyone higher and builds great communities and nations. I appreciated the opportunity to share about the Golden Rule on this great radio station with such cordial hosts, thank you.”
