In this world today we are told, taught, implored, guided, and at times even held at social gun point to practice tolerance. Fine, practice tolerance.
I had a neighbor who was a “tolerance” person, believing we should be able to accept and embrace the beliefs of others, go with the flow as it were. Fine, practice tolerance.
I have a dog that, (I found out from my tolerance practicing neighbor), barked during the day, so I moved him (my dog) from the garage to the upper deck on the other side of the house. I found out, again, that the dog still barked so I bought a shock collar for my dog, which worked. There, life is now … tolerable. Hhuummm.
I have a cat that, (I found out from my tolerance practicing neighbor), liked to poop in his gravel walkway next to his house, which, I guess, is not tolerable. So I got rid of my cat in order to make my neighbor’s life tolerable. So my cat is gone and my dog is experiencing self-inflicted tazering. Now I have to tell you I am not a tolerant person really, I’m not. I believe what I believe and that’s that. I’m into absolutes. I will not alter what I believe to be true for the sake community harmony. So how is it those who say we’re suppose to practice tolerance can’t tolerate the fact that I don’t want to be tolerant? If I’m not tolerant don’t fret over it, get over it, or better yet tolerate it! There.
So I did the dog and cat thing but I’m still a little confused how tolerating things is suppose to work, shouldn’t I still have my dog and cat? Shouldn’t my dog still be barking his brains out in the garage and my cat be crapping in the gravel?
Tolerance: Your choosing to accept me regardless of the fact that I believe I’m absolutely right and you’re absolutely wrong. (other wise … shut up)
