by Mary F. Sisney (Author)
Are you a social worker, teacher, or missionary? Like comedian Bill Maher whom she calls an atheist missionary, Mary Sisney creates a new rule. A companion to the Golden Rule ("Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."), Sisney's Bronze Rule states: "If they are not bothering you, don't bother them. In other words, mind your business." Teachers, who try to help people become smarter, better informed, clearer thinkers, and social workers, who try to help them become happier, healthier, and more self-sufficient, have less trouble minding their business than missionaries, who try to convert everyone to their way of thinking and living. The Bronze Rule is a humorous book with serious messages. It ends with a list of both serious ("Smarten the Vote Rules") and comic ("Putting the 'Real' in Reality Rules") Bronze Rules for all of us to live by so that we can stop bothering each other and live happily ever after.
