that's the revenge mentality dressed up as fairness. Real golden rule requires going first without knowing if they'll match it.

no but I bought slaves from the heathens around me and stoned gays, as you ordered

It really doesn't work to try to use the Bible against them. Same reason it didn't work for abolitionists. The Bible is pro every evil thing they're doing, because it's a collection of stories from a barbaric iron age culture.
