Well since you are accusing me of being an intolerant religionist; I would like you to show me some examples of that. What I think is, that you consider any assertion of metaphysical truth that does not comport with your view of reality to be intolerant. I do not hold that view and am quite frankly surprised when I encounter it in others.


I do consider the unwarranted killing of innocent Human beings to be murder. That always elicits reams of howls and emotional insults and charges of extremism but rarely any reasoned arguments.

I also consider that when two mutually exclusive truth claims contradict one another then there is no possibility of them both being correct. This position is also bound to be attacked by those who unthinkingly "say" that "it's wrong to say that someone else is wrong". They criticize, criticism, they hate the "hatred" and most importantly, they will simply not tolerate intolerance. I'm genuinely sorry to say that it's looking more and more like that is what's going on between you and I.
