The limits of tolerance

“Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society... then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them... We should therefore claim, in the name of tolerance, the right not to tolerate the intolerant.”
Karl R. Popper

To everyone:
I do respect your right to your religion. I do NOT have to respect your religion. Nor do I have to respect you for choosing your religion. I do respect your rights and insist that you also respect my rights.
-- Virgil Fenn
