The golden rule is a good thing to live by, but can still get complicated by variations in individuals that might both be lawful, but can offend someone with a different personal standard (think manners, etiquette or personal preference).
Here is something to consider. Would you call your dog obedient if he came when you called him at dinner time and ignored you at other times? How about a child that only obeys when they want to?
I cannot understand why Christians say we should be subject to man's law and man made government, UNLESS it is in conflict with God's law. Why not just say that we SHOULD obey YHWH's laws statutes and judgments? That is affirmed in the new testament.

The Red Queen is having her day ...perhaps so the world can see she deserves the judgment coming, but some see her fruit sooner then others and try and tell folks ...."the emperor has no clothes."

We are like boiled frogs when generation after generation acquiesce to political correctness, or man's changing standards.
