Tolerant of In-tolerance?

In today's day and age, people are unlikely to outrightly call you a fool. It's not proper. Or so they say. No, tolerance is the mantra where suffering every idea, thought and action to exist is required and forced discernment is necessary. Calling a bad idea bad, is arrogant. For who are you to call me, or my idea bad?

This argument is just a sub-derivative of this cognitive dissonance that Satan has captivated so many with. You have two mutually exclusive ideas, yet a person holds them in complete harmony with one another. This of course only lasts until they arbitrarily decide that the ideas are no longer harmonious and one prevails over the other. Usually after violating some level of personal, and relative set of moral standards. e.g. you can call my a right wing religious whacko, but I can't say that someone is mentally retarded, even if they exhibit the condition of mental retardation. I can say relative morals because unless we all submit to one moral authority, then we have ourselves for the authority and as I can easily demonstrate, you are not my authority and I am not yours; thus, it's relative to ourselves.

Thus it's revealed to be tolerant or to label oneself tolerant is a confused state of mind. You are no more tolerant than I am an ostrich. I can say that because your tolerance denotes a sense of acceptance and tranquility, yet that can be easily disrupted if the right buttons are pushed. Then you are revealed to be quite intolerant and maybe in ways that you didn't even realize that you were intolerant. You may decide to be or be interested in being at peace with all men as much as it is within you to do so, and you do well do to do this, however, is not tolerance.

I can prove that no one is tolerant. You're all prejudiced and in some cased bigoted. Some of you literally hate with a level of hate that could kill. If all social barriers were removed you literally would kill. We've elected ourselves, democratically of-course, to the King of the Land of Me and all are loyalists to the crown. Dis-loyalists are considered hateful, arrogant, bigots, or at least rude and unkind.

What about letting people fail in their train of thought, allow them to learn from their mistakes and being willing to stand up for what you believe in? What is wrong with that?

Still think you're 'tolerant'?

Want to take my test?

1. Do you see or suspect terrorism when you see a practicing Muslim in Shiite garb, perhaps on a plane?
2. When you see a group of rowdy young black adults in the mall, grouped together, do you suspect malevolence?
3. When you see a white congressmen talking television, do you assume deception?
4. When you see children, do you assume innocence?
5. If an attractive woman or man is a distressed situation are you more or less likely to help them? That's a trick question, either answer demonstrates prejudice!

See you're not tolerant. You've been lied to. Now, will you tolerate me, or learn from your mistakes and get to the root of who you really are?

Once you do that, perhaps we can talk about how tolerance really looks.
