I am afraid I will never be tolerant of prejudice- except that unique form of prejudice against the prejudiced :-) That doesn't bother me, and it does not bother me that it does not bother me (boy that one is a hall of mirrors.) I guess if that is heinous, then I choose to be heinous.

But I would not join an institution and go week by week to rant in groups against the people I find prejudiced. It's just a personal thing. And I, unlike some other people, would enact no laws to hurt the people I find prejudiced (I would only protect those people who the prejudiced want to hurt, by making sure that state is fair).

As I told DB, it really is impossible for me to respect people who are prejudiced against huge groups of people because of their sexual orientation, or the color of their skin- because those things are fairly immutable (reprogramming and Michael Jackson notwithstanding.)
