No, that is not intolerant at all! That is why we have seperate forums.

Remember though, that any un-believer will find fault with the Christian belief and or Christian person. It is called persecution, and we as Christians are well aware of that word and the meaning, as Christians have suffered varying degrees of persecution down through the ages. I guess we just need to suck it up and keep pressing on...

Pressing on, We as Christians need to always walk in love. That effort is so hard at times (believe me I know) It is very difficult to love everyone in this world. So we need to constantly remind ourselves who we are living for, why we are Christians and what our duty is as Christians. We are to let Jesus shine and live through us. Which brings me to one of my favourite scriptures:

Matthew 5:16
"In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. "

Don't get me wrong - we aren't supposed to lay down like rugs and have every "Tom, Dick & Harry" walk all over us and take advantage of us. We are to look past and through the little things, and to cast all our cares on God. He will take care of of it and the little things that bug us, and soften our hearts to the little intolerances. Believe me, I'd rather tolerate someone instead of turning them off Christianity all together! Rember Christ can change everyone! Just as you and I have changed.

Okay, enough rambling...I'm sure everyone gets my point! =)

Love and Blessings in Christ,
Ev
