It's not surprising that Christianity would include among its moral principles, universal principles. But those universal principles don't come from Christianity. Rather, to the extent that Christian morality is good, it's good because it adopted external secular universal moral principles such as the golden rule. Unfortunately Christianity didn't just stop with the universal secular moral principles, it added in a whole bunch of other garbage too, which took liberal Christians in the US centuries to get rid of due to their inconsistencies with the underlying universal secular principles such as the golden rule.
