Not all things are meant to be tolerated. Tolerance is not a virtue. Tolerance has been twisted into acceptance of all things, even against our own beliefs and the teachings of Jesus. Is that faithful Christianity?
EVEN IF I believed that there was a hell to snatch folk from, it is God's work to do so, not the work of the lawmakers or the community in general even...

When you want intolerance to be demonstrated by legislation, you have a problem with mixing apples and oranges, civil pursuits with spiritual endeavors...
