That was my point. John Locke wrote a lot of what he did because of the 30 years war back in the 1600s.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Time will tell. ... in the meantime, I'm still waiting for the official definition of "Tolerance" to be handed down from on High.

Sorry to leave you waiting. Apparently I participated in this thread 18 months ago. I'm going to leave you hanging though and withhold the official definition...

The paradox of intolerance actually came with a method of identifying the intolerant.
They don't debate.
The intolerant will bear no criticism nor critique nor debate their views.
So when one regards who is and isn't tolerant....ask yourself, are they willing to allow others to scrutinize their beliefs?
