MH - Do We Tolerate the Intolerant?

Amy Welborn writes a very thoughtful piece on modern "intolerance."

Now, I've often wondered if this word, as it's used by the liberals and the thought police, isn't more than just a new piece of liberal dogma. "Intolerance" has been elevated to a place of worship among these types, producing, as Amy says, "sentences that are thoroughly emptied of sense." And the way they repeat concepts such as "intolerance" and "inappropriate" and "hate crime," as if they were some type of mantra, makes me think that this is really another aspect of New Age spirituality, another way that Satan worms his way into they way we treat others and ourselves.

Not Amy's words, the last, just mine.
