That's a rather broad statement, wouldn't you say? I'm sure that it's true in some cases, but certainly not most.

In so far as "toleration" goes...what's wrong with that? I think that first we have to learn tolerance, then comes understanding, followed by acceptance. You're not going to change generations worth of thinking overnight. It takes time. Or, am I just over simplifying things?
