So we have this:



Now that's just pretty to see, but it means nothing in modern discourse.

We know that for liberalism, inclusive means conform to liberalism or watch your butt. The same goes for tolerance, which usually means conform to liberalism or watch your butt. Or diversity, which also can be translated as conform to liberalism or watch your butt.

I feel this applies to the Pope's comment:
14 Some people may not welcome you or listen to your words. If they don’t, leave that home or town, and shake the dust off your feet. 15 What I’m about to tell you is true. On judgment day it will be easier for Sodom and Gomorrah than for that town. (Matthew 10)

Inclusivity all the various alternative lifestyles but not so much for Christianity. They are usual buzzwords or vapid slogans like “ love is love”
I think this is why we have got to be incredibly careful not to let popular buzzwords crowd our vocabulary. They often mean things that are totally different from what we may mean to convey, and they can suck the Gospel power out of the rest of our words.
