It never fails to amaze me how people have misconstrued the meaning of tolerance. By simple definition tolerance is "the ability or willingness to tolerate something, in particular the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with". In society today far too many people associate tolerance with their own intolerance. For example, person A states an opinion that person B doesn't agree with so person B accuses person A of being intolerant among whatever other adjectives person B may attempt to use to describe the other. Everyone has the right to their own opinions. Having civil conversations about issues that face us today seems to be a thing of the past.
