Do you mean I'm intolerant of attempting to deprive women who have been raped of a pill the next day to spare them being forced to bear the child of their rapist, even in countries in which such a rape, not to mention pregnancy, causes the woman to suffer terrible stigma? (And where sometimes much worse penalties than stigma are exacted?)

Yes, I am intolerant of it. Quite intolerant. I consider forcing such suffering on other human beings because of items of one's own religious ideology to be evil.

Unless of course one is a relativist, and then one must acknowledge that it isn't evil except in one's own opinion.

In either case, I state that I am intolerant of it because it is indistinguishable to me from evil.
