This show is always trying to take a swipe at Christians. The girl that stars in the show (can't remember her name) was in a TV movie about Jesus a few years back. They were interviewing her about her role, and she pretty much said that the Jesus was about "Tolerance". No political agenda there.

Interesting phrase that she would use.

Tolerance in latin:

Toleratio est permissio megativia mali

literally means that tolerance is a negative permission of evil, a patience forebearance in the face of evil, either real or imaginary evil. Notice that tolerance is a negative. Tolerance is never positive. If it were it would be a conniviance of evil.

To say that Jesus was about tolerance is completely misguided and off the mark. I wish people had a better understanding of what they were saying.

Xmission, you probably were more succinct than I could be. Just thought I'd elaborate a little bit from Archbisop Fulton Sheen's book, Life is Worth Living.

Blessings to you.
