Tolerance is an interesting word, as it is so often on the lips of those who used to tell us "you can't legislate morality." It seems to me that the most intolerant crowd around are those forever championing "diversity". It is they who really cannot stand anyone who doesn't go along with their program.

The twin Boy Scouts live walking distance from me, so I've been aware of their lawsuit for years. The Randall's knew what the Boy Scout oath was when they joined years ago. They had the choice to not participate, or to keep their disagreement private. Instead, in the fashion of Secular Fundamentalism, they went to court to try to force everyone else to change to suit them.

Yes, there is intolerance and bigotry afoot in the country, but it comes just as often from militant and intolerant diversity mongers as it does from those who are their targets. I always wonder if the self annointed progressives amongst us have ever heard of 'freedom of association'. Probably they have, but they feel it must succumb to their moral vision. After all, they do know what is best for the rest of us.
