Yes, I too am familiar with the concept of "paradox of tolerance".
The answer to that is that if we wish to build a fair and just society, we cannot permit intolerance.
Demagogues would consider that a contradiction. Reasonable people would consider that necessary.

1. Ahh, ok. I understand. Thanks for telling me that. It clears up my view of politics. /srs

2. Yes, that is true, but I dont want to be scrutinized by the FAR far right (That is, all the "Anti-woke people")

3. Although The Bible does teach to love one another, what it does teach is to not "do as thou will". We hate sin, not sinners. Try reading Genesis, the story of Sodom and Gomorrah; Leviticus, rules to be good and faithful (No Adultery, No Homosexuality (including m/m and f/f), No feral beastiality); and Corinthians, which is all about love!

I hope im able to help you guide you in the right direction. Thank you for being respectful btw!

Ah, I see that you are a fan of the Book of Leviticus. I presume you also despise people who break its other prohibitions too, like:

  • Letting your hair become unkempt (10:6)
  • Eating any seafood without fins or scales (11:10-12)
  • Mixing fabrics in clothing (19:19)
  • Trimming your beard (19:27)
  • Cutting your hair at the sides (19:27)
  • Getting tattoos (19:28)
  • Mistreating foreigners (19:33-34)
  • Working on the Sabbath (23:3)
  • Selling land permanently (25:23)

Or is it just homosexuality that you hate?
Not lesbians, mind you. Leviticus says nothing about them.
No mention of trans people either, for that matter.

And as for your other argument, I'm glad to know where you stand.
That you would rather bend over backwards to appease fascists rather than risk offending them.
Then again, it sure is convenient that you also object to the thing that would offend them. You have that in common.
