Intolerance
After a few days rolling it round my head and what has been happening lately i decided to take the plunge on this subject. There seems to be intolerance on a scale that is growing and is starting to eat away at everything and anyone regardless of who they are. Grego posted the other night in reply to the religious intolerance I myself see up here yet it is creeping in everywere. We have seen it with banning piglet, the meat stinks threads for 2 examples. Even the euthanasia one was getting hot for a while.
We need to learn to be tolerent of others and their all but they to need to learn to be tollerent of what we believe. I see people fighting because they are of the wrong religion or the wrong football team which is to me stupid. I have watched and learned from this also the fact that being English did not go down to well at first. The attacks were at the english in general but as i was there i got the verbal kicking. Now I must admit I laugh at it and let them have their own opinion and they let me have mine. Mutual understanding wins on that count.
All it takes is a little time to listen and understand. There is too much agrravation as it is because people do not listen or understand or they do not want to. We are a multi cultural multi ethnical multi lingual society so now maybe its time to start learning about each outher and the beliefs they hold. If we show the way then others might follow and if they choose not too at least we can hold are heads high because at least we tried. Doesnt matter if christian hindu muslim athiest vegitarian meat love pro life anti whatever we have to try because if we dont society will fallinto little cliques based on beliefs and ultimately damage it beyond repair.
