Christians are scolded for being bigoted, racist, elitist, etc, for such things as not allowing practicing gays to be members of a church. I think this is a perfect example of hypocrisy Here's why. Would an atheist be ok with a fundamental Christian teaching their children's science class in a state that permited the discussion of intelligent design? No. According to the atheist, that teacher is filling your childs head with thing that are incorrect and harmful. They only want their kids to associate with people who believe what they believe. If we are elitist, the liberals are far more because their exclusivity occurs not just in a few churches but in every single educational institution in the country. Educators with different views are not currently allowed into the "fellowship" of teachers. Even if they are, they are not permitted to speak of their views. My point is simply that not even liberals can really be tolerant. Tolerance is an unworkable ideal. What do you think?
