Tolerance Will not be Tolerated - Todd Strandberg - https://www.raptureready.com/category/nearing-midnight/
The political divide between the right and left has become incredibly wide. In fact, I did not think it would be possible to have a functioning society with this level of political discord. With each passing week, we manage to find a new low.
The latest milestone is that tolerance itself has become a dirty word. If you tolerate your enemy in any way, you are guilty of their political sins. Forget about Jesus' sermon about loving your enemies. Hate is now the new virtue.
The Friendship between Ellen DeGeneres and George W. Bush has been in many news reports. The two made headlines when DeGeneres was spotted sitting next to Bush and his wife, Laura Bush, at a Dallas Cowboys football game. Ellen defended their friendship, saying, 'We're all different and I think that we've forgotten that that's okay, that we're all different.'
CNN and moderator Anderson Cooper were criticized for ending the night with a question about the TV host's unlikely friendship with the former president. Cooper could have just as well asked if it's odd that Trump has black friends. As a member of the leftist cabal, DeGeneres clearly violated some rule with her coziness with Bush.
I knew the day would come when Shepard Smith would leave Fox News. Smith, the network's chief news anchor and managing editor of its breaking news unit, has worked at Fox News since its inception in 1996. He made headlines for his on-air criticism of President Donald Trump.
Smith was clearly working for the wrong network. He infused his show with a demonstrably hateful, contemptuous, and toxic anti-Trump tone, and his 'reporting' often sounds like Democrat talking-point propaganda. He frequently drew criticism from primetime stars like Sean Hannity and Tucker Carlson.
I'm sure Shepard Smith will easily get a job at another network. His long career at Fox News may prove to be a problem. Someone will dig up old praises Smith had for a conservative, and that will be the end for him. The former Fox News head Roger Ailes having called Shepard Smith his "go-to guy" for "hard news" might as well be praise from Satan himself.
Megyn Kelly didn't last long at NBC because she had worked for Fox News. The staff hated her because she, in their mind, could never get the smell of the so-called conservative network off of her flesh. It didn't matter that Kelly had been a foe of President Trump. NBC had to pay out $25 million to rid itself of her.
Senator Cory Booker recently made an appearance at a CNN town hall, in which he advocated for religious intolerance. He basically suggests that Catholic schools across the country should shut down because they don't endorse his homosexual lifestyle:
"And so for me, I cannot allow, as a leader, that people are going to use religion as a justification for discrimination. I could respect your religious freedoms, but also protect people from discrimination, and as I said in the earlier answer, I grew up in a household where my parents talked to me about how people used to use religion to justify the discrimination against African Americans."
I don't understand where he thinks he has the right to say "I cannot allow." Catholics have a right to act in ways that don't harm anybody else, and if they choose to have an institution that elevates heterosexuality above homosexuality, that is not harming anyone else. Booker doesn't have to participate in that institution.
The sexual views of the Catholic church are based on natural law. For the same reason the Catholics are against abortion and contraception, they're also against homosexual activity. Namely, they believe that the end of the sexual act is procreation, and that because sex is directed toward procreation and toward the deepening of relationships that end with procreation, heterosexual sex ought to be favored over homosexual activity.
If we cut to the chase on tolerance, the last thing to go will be patience for anyone who claims to be a believer in Jesus Christ. By having given any forms of intolerance a green light, murder will quickly become a reasonable punishment.
"Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name [than Jesus Christ] under heaven given among men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
"When the Lamb broke the fifth seal, I saw underneath the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they had maintained" (Revelation 6:9).
