tolerance
Heh, damned stupid thing to be pushing in Moral Studies class for the kiddies, I think.
I mean, think about it, they're being taught to "tolerate" people who's faiths, race and other bit's and pieces are different from their's. TOLERATE. As if the difference offends and irritates, but you bear it. Like a damned scab on your knee or a really bad t-shirt.
Wouldn't "acceptance" be better?

i doubt anyone takes the subject seriously.
i suppose not. it is just semantics at the end of the day.
wouldn't modern philosophy be a more interesting class? I mean, getting people to analyse other people's theories, formulating their own....
But I suppose it's easier to be told what to think.
