Granted, narrow-minded repression is bad -- but that's a vice at one extreme. The vice at the other extreme is soft-headed indulgence, accepting every idea as having equal value. It would be dangerous, soft-headed indulgence to think that Hitler's torture is as valuable as Mother Teresa's service, that 2+2=4 is as true as 2+2=7. Narrow-minded repression is a vice of the cruel and powerful while soft-headed indulgence is a vice of the weak and lazy. Tolerance is the virtue in between those two vices. Therefore, the idea that all religions lead to God, like various paths going up a mountain to the top, would be an example of soft-headed indulgence, not of true tolerance. |
