The other problem is you can substitute anything
"reasonable" for "Golden Rule" in your argument.
While the point of the argument is taken, it has
effectively zero value. You are only pushing your
particular cause, in this case the "Golden Rule".

This is the logical crux of the matter, in that you have predetermined a particular standard that appeals to you. Furthermore, although you phrase your wager with the word "assume", this is effectively the same thing as saying "believe without proof" which is the same thing as FAITH to those of us who are Christian believers.
