It is not a socialist idea that as human beings we have certain entitlements, such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (ie a general welfare system).

A socialist idea is that all goods are equally shared by the people. And that any means used towards that end are acceptable.

The use of any means is unacceptable to a civilized people. No matter the promise.

"This Laodicean cant of tolerance" of evil is deceptive.

A great quote, I think. education.yahoo.com is a great reference site. I found that quote of Robert Elsmere while looking up tolerance.
