Traditional tolerance values, respects and accepts the individual without necessarily approving of or participating in his or her beliefs or behavior. The new tolerance may sound like traditional tolerance, but it is vastly different. And since there are many human communities, there are necessarily many different truths. The new tolerance says that what every individual believes or says is equally right, equally valid. All values are equal.
All lifestyles are equal.
All truth claims are equal. But the Bible makes it clear that all values, beliefs, lifestyles and truth claims are not equal. This undermines the very essence and meaning of absolute truth. And any person who no longer believes in absolute truth will lose their moral compass, their ability to distinguish between right and wrong, which, ultimately, will leave them powerless to resist temptation and choose right. The new tolerance unrelentingly inserts itself subtly into our lives, via television images and song lyrics.
