If the opposite in time sequence was true, Christianity would not have been born from the mind of Paul.

Because the Golden Rule covers the whole second part of the Decalogue. And he broke the Golden Rule because I did not like to be addressed to as a hypocrite, would you?

What does being in the Decalogue have to do with being serious? Being a false prophet is a sin, and it carries a much more serious punishment than most of the commandments in the Decalogue.
Well personally, if someone saw that I was being hypocritical I'd want them to point that out so that I can either rectify myself or defend myself.
Incidentally, I'm not convinced that the Golden Rule of the Torah applies to you.

Said the guy about the religion whose G-d has the most Names in the world.

HaShem has only one name. All the other references to Him are titles according to the actions of creation or descriptive adjectives about His relations with the Universe, especially man.

How, by calling you a hypocrite? I don't think you know what the Golden Rule is.

What is "sun"? Haven't seen that thing for a long time.
Also saving someones life on Shabbes was never against the rules.

That's one opinion. Not a Jewish one, mind you. But its definitely an opinion.

I don't think you know what falling under the Golden Rule means.

Good! I think many over-zealous religious people ought to learn from you.

No I have yet to meet a Jew who wouldn't save the life of someone on the shabbat.
But you are spinning so don't let me stop you.

And you mean even Haredi Jews!

Absolutely. Surely you know that ספק נפשות דוחה את השבת, right? And מפקחין פקוח נפש בשבת והזריז ה"ז משובח ואין צריך ליטול רשות מב"ד? Right?

I've got family in Israel, an aunt and uncle of mine got a neighbour who's part of the uh... I think Chernobyl dynasty and he works with the MDA. Whether its for money or as an volunteer I don't know.
What I know is that he was about to leave his home on a Shabbat dressed in his MDA clothes when I dropped by to give them some Nunt and it wasn't even near Purim. Because normal people don't need a reason to eat some Nunt from time to time!

I do know that if you put half of much time in rectifying your actions of being a hypocrite as you do denying that you are one, we'd be on a new topic by now.
What would you call someone that demands something from someone, but refuses to provide the same thing himself as he is demanding from others?
