104. No It Is Not a Tired Arugment.
People see things differently. Isn't that what tolerance is about? Even amongst liberals we disagree with people on various viewpoints. I know a bunch of Fundies, hell, I live in Fundieville. Most of them are well educated and successful people...not the blind dumb sheep that we portray them to be. Yes, we disagree on a LOT of issues. I do not feel hatred from them, nor do I hate them. Quite to the contrary, if I or a neighbor has a problem, they willing try to help me or anyone else that has a need. Even though we have our differences, I honestly respect them and their beliefs. That does not mean that I agree with them. We need to rise above the intolerance, stereotyping and hatred that often leeches from posts on Christians. We need to distinquish ourselves from the Freepers and their insults on Muslims. But when I read our posts on Christians it makes me squirm...we are at times no different than Freepers.
