Gonna stir the pot. Tolerance is bullshit. At it's core what does the word tolerate mean? It means you are condemning an action as wrong, or unacceptable, yet putting up with it anyways.
Acceptance is much better. I don't need to agree with someone to accept them. I don't need to believe what someone else believes to accept the person. But if someone shows up at my house and believes dogs should be eaten for dinner, I will accept them and their belief, but if they touch my dog they are outta here.
The middle east, just like other parts of the world, doesn't need to tolerate people they believe are wrong or evil. They need to accept them with a loving heart. They need to forgive each other and accept their differences, and figure out a way to live together.
Maybe I am jaded, but tolerance just breeds resentment IMO.
