Immanual Kant, Jesus, and my Grandfather

I believe that all 3 of these people stated something true, that they came to in different ways, and they all mean basically the same thing in the end.
(also, I'm kind of paraphrasing all 3, rather than quoting directly)


Kant - "Act so that every action of yours should be capable of becoming a universal rule of action for all men."

Jesus - "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."

Grandpa K - "Don't ever do anything that would embarrass you if it was on the front page of tomorrow's newspaper, and you'll be OK."

    I'm not sure Jesus actually said that. Isn't that just the 'golden rule'? But the saying by gpa K is pretty true.
