I am intolerant of a great many things. Being burned for one, or attacked (verbally or physically), and because I am reasonably compulsive about things, I am intolerant to great amounts of change, but there is really nothing all too odd about that.
I try to be tolerant of people, but not necessarily their beliefs, especially if I consider them immoral (hatred towards gays, women, blacks), or rather ignorant (creationism, my way is the only way...). I suppose I tolerate the person, and am intolerant of destructive beliefs.

Of stupidity and immoral behavior, I hope so!!! Intolerant doesn't mean what it used to in today's culture. Intolerant now means that one must not only indulge and permit an opposing or offensive behavior or belief system but also accept and applaud that other behavior or perspective. To not "tolerate" people's immoral/stupid behavior in this respect is now considered intolerant by the "tolerant" folks. Hypocrites! Oh, the stupidity of "liberated," "free" thinking!! People want to be accepted and loved for who they are and to that I agree. We all need love and acceptance but there are things we all do that love cannot accept. "Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth." (I Cor. 13:6) It is those who are rejoicing with the truth and not delighting in evil - the real lovers - they are the ones being accused of being intolerant!! I'd rather be a lover than a modern tolerant person!!

If you were intolerant of intolerance, you would of created an infinite loop which would have required an infinite amount of time to work out, as you would continually "banish" thoughts of intolerance from your mind, but the banishing process is intolerant to the banished, requiring banishing the banishing, so on.

There are certain things I am intolerant about, yes. As well a Christian should be.

I certainly hope so . . .
Actually no. I'm pretty intolerant of willing ignorance, inexcusable stupidity, and intolerance (which usually is accompanied of one of the previous two)

I'm tolerant of most things, and intolerant of a few.

I don't call that intolerance of intolerance, it's speaking out against something that could really hurt people, I call THAT "discernment" and compassion.
