Tolerance is the buzz word of the day. Tolerance says that we need to be tolerant of everyone's opinions. Everyone should have an equal say and their views given equal airplay, as long as they are not detrimental to the common good.
But is this actually the case? How are Christians to keep talking about Jesus in a 'tolerant' society, when it seems that society is no longer tolerant of Christians sharing their faith in the public square?
The Intolerance of Tolerance by D A Carson is coming out this month. It's a book written for the layperson and addresses the questions written above. Will post a review after reading it.
