SOME OBSERVATIONS ON TOLERANCE
Sunday, January 16, 2005
Little known fact 1: One must object to something in order to tolerate it. You do not have to tolerate something that you do accept or affirm Since the above is true, this makes most conservative Christians the most tolerant people in the world because they object to a lot! Little known fact 2: The least tolerant person is the one who accepts everything. Want to test this? Ask a liberal what they think of Jesse Helms or Kenneth Starr. There is a difference between healthy tolerance and a diseased moral passivity or indifference. Note to Lefty: I'm working on finding a less general term than "liberal" :)

    Good point, JM. I'm still waiting for some liberals to "tolerate" the results of the 2000 presidential election.

"Snipet" (pronounced: snipe - it) is not a word.It is a derivative of two words: "Snipe" and "Snippet".


Miriam Webster defines Snipe as: to aim a carping or snide attack, or: to shoot at exposed individuals (as of an enemy's forces) from a usually concealed point of vantage.


Miriam Webster defines Snippet as: : a small part, piece, or thing; especially : a brief quotable passage.


In short, "Snipets" are brief, snide shots at exposed situations from a concealed vantage point.
