RE "tolerance.....is a two way street" Yes, but too many people say this, believe it, and think they live it, but don't. For example, if you are tolerant to my view that God created the world etc. you also have to be tolerant to Cleo's view that God does not exist, and that all religion is inherently evil. Basically, although you can disagree with some of the posts on this thread (and the views are so diverse, I guess it is impossible to not disagree with some), you may even be personally offended by some, but you have to accept them as other people's views. If you feel that any one of these posts should not have been made, then you are NOT being tolerant.

I didn't criticize anyone's posts. I didn't criticize Cleo...I didn't criticize the people that got offended. I honestly believe people should be tolerant and I try to be tolerant to all views.

You're right no one is 100% tolerant...but it isn't such a bad ideal to strive for it. The world would be a better place if people tried to tolerate more.

As I said, I'm not religious. I don't follow any religion...I'm perfectly comfortable with letting you ecchi believe that god created everything and I'm also perfectly comfortable with letting Cleo believe there is no god. I have no hangups either way as I know you both have good reasons to believe what you believe in.

Tolerance is a two way street...People of differing views should be able to set it aside and if they can't love each other at least they can tolerate each other, not try to cause harm to the other, and maybe even try to respect each other. That was my point.

Mr Blue - Sorry my post was not aimed at you, I was just using your original post to make a point that I felt a few other people should be made aware of.
