Following the Golden Rule is nice. Everyone should do it. But for Christians and Jews, there is a far bigger picture (or scheme of things) than just living by that rule.
Because why would a non-religious person ever follow the Golden Rule if they're just going to die anyway and there's nothing after that because they don't exist anymore? They certainly won't care anymore whether they followed the rule or not because they're dead.
