I have read the Bible cover to cover twice now and I did not pick up any rules on how to be a good person and live a good life. The only rules in there are about how not to be a bad person by way of prohibiting certain behaviours.
The only thing that comes close to describing how to be a good person is the "Do unto others" rule. But I note that this is fatally flawed if, say, I wanted to be despised (such as any Goth in town) then I am entitled to despise others.
So, can anyone point out the rules for being a good person in the Bible?
