Jews are the founder of the golden rule.
ANSWER 2:
The belief system of Judaism is monotheism. The 'Golden Rule' first appeared in the Hindu sacred texts: "Do not to others what ye do not wish done to yourself; and wish for others too what ye desire and long for, for yourself." It was written almost 1000 years before the Jewish Torah.
Answer 3:
The philosophy of Judaism is that this world is a purposeful creation by God, in which all people are tested concerning their use of free-will. We possess a soul which lives on after the body dies and is held responsible for the person's actions. Anyone who is worthy, Jewish or not, can merit reward in the afterlife.
Here is a list of the most basic beliefs of Judaism, as collated by Maimonides:
1. God exists, and is the Creator.
2. God is One and unique.
3. God is not physical.
4. God is eternal.
5. Prayer is to be directed only to God.
6. The words of the prophets are true.
The prophecies of the Hebrew Bible have been coming true throughout history. Even secular archaeologists (the unbiased ones) have stated that the Hebrew Bible is the most accurate of historical records, as the disdainful theories of Wellhausen and Bible-critics of his ilk have been shattered by the archaeologist's spade. A list of Bible verses which were deemed anachronistic but later shown to be perfectly accurate would run into the many hundreds.
7. The prophecies of Moses are true; and he was the greatest prophet.
8. The Torah was given to Moses by God.
9. There will be no other Torah.
10. God knows the thoughts and deeds of all.
11. God rewards the good and punishes the wicked.
12. The Messiah will come.
13. The dead will be resurrected.

Why did the Mormon Joseph Smith steal the concept of the 13 articles of faith from the Jewish religion which already has their own and what else did he steal to make his religion true?

Uh... no. Most every religion and denomination has a list of the basic articles of their faith. Some call it a "Statement of Belief", "Articles of Belief", "Statement of Faith" or "Articles of Faith" and many of them are very similar to each other. That doesn't mean they are plagarized it just means that the religions have similar foundational beliefs. The Jewish Articles of Faith, however, are completely different than the Mormon Articles of Faith. You can compare the two at the "Related Links" below.
