Interesting article. Thanks for posting it. Reminds me of the articles about Shiite reactions to Salafi intolerance from a long time ago in Saudi Arabia.

As for the ignore list, I just try to read comments by the people with points of view that I enjoy. I'm not here for the truth, just a little reflection during the day. I believe there are many different systems of truth, just like there are many different systems of yoga. Asthanga, anusara, bikram, hatha, iyengar - take your pick. Some people will choose one system, others will integrate many systems. Some people are completely opposed to certain systems of yoga. They might love ashtanga but hate iyengar. Whatever, intolerance exists at every level - politics, religion, yoga, art, music, philosophy.

I always liked the phrase about how we should be mindful of the things of which we are unaware. It reminds me that people confuse maturity with intolerance.
