Moral Relativism

[Marinantinel]

Tolerance for Christian conservatives are what it has been for centuries, but there is a new tolerance.

The new moral relativism has given rise to a false tolerance where Christians have to not only accept what they do and think, but accept what they do as equal to what we do or think. Frankly, that is intellectual dictatorship. We have every right to accept o
ur ways as better and always will have the moral right to do so, even if we eventually lose the legal rights.

Oh, and not only has it gotten this far, but now the dictatorship has gotten even further. Progression has led towards not only glad acceptance towards the ways of others, but that we must do what you do as well.

I state this absolute fact. The teachings of today are a corruption of better truths. We have every right to think what we think and do what we do and even think do and think better.

The premise of your argument is bull crap.

WE have been arguing tolerance as it has been argued for centuries. That we have been supposed to treat others with different opinions very well, and that we were to be courteous and polite.

Of course, if you are going to stake your life on a faith, which is what is meant by faith, then you have to be convinced that you perception is the truth. And you would be right. However, a Pagan stakes his life on the Goddess and the power of Nature, and he would also be right. You would then have an issue with the fact that there are two truths but I would ask you to see them rather as two versions of the same truth. Let me change your perception of this little problem just a tad. Look at mankind from God's point of view. Lots of people everywhere and all of them are aware of you but they are so far removed from each other. Would God, who is Love, not love all equally and accept the various names and rituals they have formed.

You are absolutely right. That doesn't make everyone else wrong. "Judge not!" was what Jesus said. (I think)

[Mr. Blocks]

The way I see it we all live in our own little worlds, where we paint our own reality each day. So we aren't ever wrong, we may just decide we are and erase the painting and replace it with an updated version of our reality.

I have mine, you have yours.
