One of the biggest messages in all religions it TOLERANCE, so why is it not praticed with any degree of skill?

Prayer has been banned in schools, 70 million babies have been aborted, the 10 commandments have been removed from public places, one is considered ignorant and hateful if they say homosexuality is wrong, and kids today are growing up believing they are monkeys, how much tolerance do you think should be shown?

edit:

It is because of the way he lived his life, and because of the things that he said, that Jesus was killed. He lived a sinless life, and when he stood up to those who condoned evil, they had him crucified. People who say that they are Christian and practice abomination are not living by his example.

I think that there are some people who simply do want to feel better about themselves and so it is easy to just not like someone because they are different from you, or in your way or whatever. The fact is that tolerance has to be practiced. No one is perfect at it....okay, maybe Mother Theresa and Ghandi. I do my best to be tolerant on a daily basis but there are people who push my buttons on a regualr basis.

nobody practices the tolerance..God loves the people..

I think we should not judge the people if they are gay or not.. I am gay I hate the Christians speak againts the gay people without understand the science or the real life.. they are always hiding using the Bible according their interpretation

What should be and what is are often two different things. Because many don't find the word in their Bibles they don't think it applicable despite the treatment of the opposite "Hypocrite" which does appear and would apply if they looked in the mirror as well as the Bible.

Ah yes, the question of why Tolerance is not tolerated.

There is a secret reason why tolerance is in such short supply.

Ready for it?

It's bad for religions.

Ponder it for a while. You'll understand.

such a good question....

maybe some followers like to use their scriptures to promote their own hatred, rather than rising to walk this thing called tolerance

Tolerance is hard, taking jabs is easy

Being humble is not so popular, being on top is king

I know I have to work every single day to practice tolerance, and it only counts when people press your buttons.

Christians are not to be part of this world and gays and religions who do not believe Jesus is the only way to God the Father are not tolerated by them. What is an abomination to God is obviously going to be to Christians as well.

Cos they are still working on their humanity. Me too.

Because OTHERS are the ones who need to learn PATIENCE, NOT ME! hehe

your theory sounds plausible to me
