Why do sinners ask others for tolerance regarding their sin?

Sin destroys nations one individual at a time . Sin should be named and examined by us (the righteous) to reveal its destructive nature. Sinful special interest groups should never be given the blind eye of tolerance by us (the righteous).

Update:

R3: They do. The word tolerance is their chosen word used to make people who view it as sin to appear intolerant. So where do we begin to build up here?

If you live in a neighborhood and 'bad' people start to move in eventually the people you view as 'good' start to move out. You may 'tolerate' them for a while but as the 'bad' displaces the 'good' you'll find yourself alone with people who think differently then you and you'll begin to seek another neighborhood. But what if you are poor and unable to move? Do you huddle in your home or do you go out and make friends with the 'bad' people? So, lets say you attempt to make friends, then you see that the 'bad' people really are bad, no quotation marks needed they are plain ol' BAD people and want no friendship with you. What do you do then? Huddle in your house and hope they leave you alone? Or do you stand up and tell them they are bad? Oh no, now you are

Update 2:

btw/ I do not give 'thumbs down' to answers.

    They dont, or rather shouldn't. You should give it as a righteous (via your post) person. No man can give absolution of sin. Sin is sin, and can only be tolerated or judge by God. Confessing can be a fruitful exercise, but it is not the end all be all of the game.

    Also, a blind eye? No. But one should seek to build up, not to tear down. If a group or person bothers you, instead of insulting and minimizing them, you should work in the same vein as Jesus to confer counterpoints, reasoning, and logic.

    Let he is without sin cast the first stone. Which means I will be at the back of the line...

    They dont need to though.

    I did not say befriend them, I said build them up. Most of my neighbors have crappy yards, I howver do not. I keep up my house and yard instead of tell them how crappy there's is, because that accomplishes nothing. Standing around and acting holy point a finger isnt going to do anything. Do those "bad" stop being "bad" when you tell them? No, they only way they can stop is by seeing another option, that is the whole point of church to offer that to sinners.

    If you are a chrstian and your church hates sin good, if your church hates sinner bad. Because everyone is a sinner and no sin is greater than any other. If you kick out all the "bad" souls and keep only the "righteous" you A) would truthfully be in an empty room and B) preaching to people who dont need it. A doctor doesn't heal heathly people, he heals the sick.

    Because they want to live by what makes them feel good rather than what is right.

    See how tolerant they become towards another not in agreement with their mindset.

    I don't do tolerance, only truth.

    Tolerance is acceptance. Gays want us to accept their sexual sin so they can move on to attacking the churches who refuse to pander to them.
