So many people

don't understand that tolerance of people and their opinions extends both ways.


Vatican tells UN that critics of gays under attack

The idea seems to be that 'you have to accept and allow my opinions, but yours are wrong and aren't to be tolerated'. Really, whether a person agrees with the Church's opinion on homosexual relationships or not, others should be tolerant of their position, in a society of tolerance. Instead, they're vilified and charged with 'hate crimes', while those who hate and 'preach' against Catholics and Christians have to have their opinions tolerated. There is an certain inequity there, no matter what you think of this particular issue...
