Quote: Religious Tolerance, is in britain becoming a form of suppression. So far I think the debate has been around the right to hold a view, but free speech is not just about being able to think it is also about being able to speak. Remember in the most fascist islamic state you can think whatever you want, you are just not allowed to speak it.
Free speech is to be able to speak, and sometimes we just need to tell the other guy he is a wanker. If I am not allowed to offend you because you have a religion, but you are allowed to offend me because my views are only a philosophy there is no equality.
No I don't think, religious toleration is acceptable, it stifles society and as such is anti social.
Tolerance is fine, it's no threat, I'm tolerant of a lot of things/people.
Mandated/enforced tolerance? Entirely different kettle of fish, it's something that we should not tolerate.
Nemo me impune lacessit.
