So you'd have no problem with Cultists, or Scientologists, or atheists, or Muslims, or Shintoists, etc., stopping by your house every afternoon trying to convert you to their beliefs? Because they're convinced that good is THEIR belief system. While yes, its perfectly fine to want to exchange ideas, the whole affair certainly does get annoying after a while. And you can't necessarily prove that one religion is better than the other, because they all lack objective proof that they're true (which is rather the whole point of faith).
What's wrong with people these days that they don't like human contact. I've never met a witness of any faith, when I politely said no thank you, they politely moved on. If you can't even deal with that, post a sign, or just don't answer the door.

In you're mind it would be good. But I think that's a rather obviously bad scenario. The point I'm trying to make is that the Golden Rule shouldn't taken quite so literally as he's trying to make it.
A lactose-intolerant man undoubtedly would not want to have someone give him milk to drink. Does that mean he should not give it if the situation arises?
And the point I'm making is that to not take it literally would be to violate it. Also, just an FYI, please refer to me as "they", not "he".
You really think Christ spoke like a robot, where every sentence he said was an exact literal meaning, and didn't use idioms, hyperbole, and vernacular?
