Actually I think it's intolerant to tolerate the intolerant *lifted eyebrow*.

Some what. But if you look at why they are being intolerant you can often teach them the truth and open up their minds and their world. My mother always tell me not to be intolerant to the intolerant. It is their life and their choice. I just show people that I am a good person and have a good life, then I show them who and what I am. That has actually changed a few people's minds. And I love that.

Do you have to tolerate the intolerable who can't tolerate anyone in their intolerable mission to spread intolerance? That I am not sure, I prefer to think of them as spoiled children, and hope their parents will spank them.

Political correctness has gotten out of control but it is an art to do this correctly, so let me explain it to you.
1. If you meet a man who is of a different race you must treat him with respect as you would anyone else.
2. If you meet a man who is a different race and is also a homosexual, you must treat him better than you would anyone else.
3. If you meet a woman who is of a different race and a homosexual , you must treat her better than you would anyone else, but you must make her feel like she is being treated as an equal.
4. If you meet a woman, who is of a different race, who is homosexual and an illegal alien you must treat her better than others, not her know it and give a sad sign of pity when mentioning her plight to other members of your group.
5. If you meet any one who does not follow these special rules, you are free to be as cruel, mean or intolerant as you wish. By this time you will be so tired and confused it won't be a stretch.

Yes, intolerance is still intolerance no matter how you slice it.
Sorry to disappoint.

if so, then i am guilty. but i dont care. i think its worse to be intolerant of a specific people: gays, blacks, christians, etc. to be intolerant of those who are intolerant i believe is a lesser offense.

yes!
real intolerance is achieved when we become able to forgive people intolerant to us
prophet Mohammed forgave his enemies who tried to kill him many times saying to them "go you are free"

Arn't regressives fun. and infinite regressives are infinite fun. An old philosopher said "everything in moderation, even moderation".

Probably and if it is I am SO guilty.
People who are bigoted, narrow-minded and loud about it make my head explode. It isn't a pretty sight.
