Many people do practice kindness, courtesy, tolerance, and understanding. But some still can't grasp the following truth....which is that the kingdom of God is within. What that actually means is there is no wrong path, and of course there is no one right path either. Many people would not have a problem with others who believe different things. The problem is that some keep insisting that their way is the only true way, and all others must suffer eternal damnation unless the embrace the so called only true way. THAT is what gets most people upset, NOT the differences of opinion. When most people have finally begun to understand that we are literally one with God and one with each other, then maybe there will be more kindness, tolerance, understanding, compassion, sharing, and so on! Love and Happy Holidays to All!!!

Because many are so young and inexperienced in social situations. Young people believe it is more impressive to shock others with rudeness rather than to show kindness and tolerance. Especially in an on-line venue such as this, people can hide behind a false screen name and write what they wish with no fear of repercussion.
We have a right to free speech and free will, but few practice the decency to realize that it applies to others as well, and then to accept it as their opinion.
Merry Christmas
Pay it forward the best way you know how

What world do you live on, it's obviously not this one!
When I was young they grabbed long haired hippies and forcebly gave them crew cuts in the streets in America and England.
They hung black people from trees in the South for no good reason.
The denied American Citizens jobs and even jailed them for saying they were communists.
We are building a wall across the Southern border of America
We are killing and being killed in foreign lands right now
People deny the holocost existed
People are trying to get rid of holidays because only a few don't like them
Buildings are being bombed by angry people
Trains are being bombed by angry people
China had to build a wall hundreds of miles long to keep nasty people out
Nuclear technology is being developed by more and more people who also have missiles to send their bombs whereever they like
That last person to say be tolerant was Chamberlain, when he gave Poland to Hitler

It's usually due to a 4 letter word called, SELF. We think that our opinions and ideas are the most accurate. We act as though our comfort is the most important, and our life and style is top priority. Therefore, when it comes to accepting others and their way of life, their concerns, and ideas, we tend to become defensive in some ways. That is the reason that so many refuse Jesus Christ. Because He commands us to do all that you have mentioned and, well, sadly, many can't accept that type of humbleness.

Peace and love to you too my friend. I think that the fact that people are able to remain annonynous here makes them feel that they can say whatever they want without regards to other's people's feelings. In some ways, this site is a reflection of the way society really is...there are many good people and then there are many who don't care who they may hurt or offend.

because so many on this site beg to be insolent, offensive, mean-spirited and unteachable? and the Maker of Galaxies chooses to use such folks to teach us love and tolerance and kindness etc... not just on this site...it is a good example of human nature. the bigger question would be then why does God even care? the answer ofcourse is that simply because He does care.

Everyone is different.all that call on the name of the lord will not be saved. only those who do my fathers will will make it to heaven said Jesus.to truly know Gods will you must ask. and listen to the answer that is heard within in a very quiet voice.Having Love in our hearts is the most important value that Jesus said was to come first.above all other things he taught for us to do.with love most all other spiritual quality's will follow naturally.God and his Spirit is found in each persons soul.no matter there religion. I wish you the best.Peace and Love

People are provoked at different levels. There is a lot of heat generated in discussions on this site, very emotive indeed.

because we've had "tolerance" and "political correctness" rammed down our throats for so long now, that we're choking on it, and as a consequence, there is a lot of blowback against it. Of course, as my screen name indicates, there are still lots of crybabies out there that run and tell on you when you don't take the tolerance happy pills and join them in singing Kumbaya.

I think it takes a certain level of spiritual awareness before one can begin to see the necessity for reflecting good qualities in all areas of life.
