I would just sum up the way things look, at least from this secular perspective, as far as compassion and the golden rule go, by saying that it's good news that compassion and the golden rule are in some sense built into human nature.
Eu resumiria a situação das coisas, ao menos desta perspectiva secular, no que se refere a compaixão e regra de ouro, dizendo que é uma boa notícia que a compaixão e a regra de ouro estão, de algum modo, inerentes à natureza humana.
