>last
>dying
When vices are wrongly perceived as virtues, a society is most likely on the hard decline.
Negatives don't die
Negatives can grow

The point is that apathy is not a virtue
Tolerance and apathy aren't virtues, and that's exactly the point.
The society is dying
A dying society considers them virtuous.
Tolerance is a virtue

not really considering this is not a professional atmosphere

I'll engage in this discussion but given this is the Wall channel I'm not beholden to professionalism.
No, but respect and integrity are virtues that produce tolerance. Is that accurate?
no
Not really.
The problem I'm having is that I like to see where people come from and how they got to a certain conclusion and that with you I cannot see
Integrity does not beget tolerance, certainly.
respect and tolerance are two very different things my guy
Tolerance deals with the compromising away of principles, whilst integrity has to do with holding fast to principles.
Respect doesn't require tolerance but it produces a similar effect.
Some
If you respect someone, you don't shoo them away.
But that doesn't mean you tolerate a certain thing.
I respect some homosexuals, for instance, but don't tolerate their homosexuality.
Frederick the Great, for instance.
I respect the man and thus would not speak lowly of him, especially not to his face were I so privileged to meet the Prussian Ruler.
Respect, however, is earned.
