When they ask (if they do) what that means, tell them that tolerance means we allow the thing tolerated, but we don't accept it as good or desirable. Tolerance isn't a value-neutral, everything-is-as-good-as-everything-else concept. It is more akin to mercy, where you recognize the deficiencies and wrongnesses of something but refrain from punishing it as it warrants.DougLosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05917776084914759015noreply@blogger.com
