How would you define the word "tolerance"?
-----------------------------------From Faith board guidelines:
"Since the idea here is support, please don't pressure others to adopt your beliefs or put them down for having theirs."
"Sorry, but this may mean not posting some aspects of some beliefs."
* Statement #1: I believe that you can't get to Nirvana but through Brahman.
Is Statement #1 civil?
Is Statement #1 antisemitic?
----------------------------------
From Faith board guidelines:
"'Tolerance should be given to all religions that tolerate others, so long as their dogmas contain nothing contrary to the duties of citizenship. --Jean-Jacques Rousseau, The Social Contract, 1762 '"
Hinduism tolerates other religions. Does Christianity tolerate Judaism? Does Judaism tolerate Christianity? Do you, Mr. Pilder, tolerate Christianity and its fundamental tenet?
* Statement #2: I believe that you cannot get to heaven but through Jesus.
Is this statement in any way different from statement #1?
Do these statements put-down other religions?
Is Judaism tolerant of people who believe statement #2?
