"Tolerance in the hands of the left is not an end; it is a means to an end. They use the language of tolerance to marginalize the only religion that is sufficiently influential to play a major, culture-forming role in any given country, and then when that's done, they impose a different order that is far less tolerant than the one they destroyed.
There is no society in the history of the world that fails to hold to a basic religious creed and makes no moral distinctions. Any political propagandist who claims to want to embrace a concept of absolute tolerance is either a deceiver or deceived.
Tolerance is a battering ram to break down one order so that a different order can be built on the rubble."
Jerry Bowyer, www.crosswalk.com, quoted in the Philadelphia Inquirer, June 22, 2005
