Tolerance means
tolerating or pulling up with differences. 36 This concept means
different things to different people, but it is when something is disagreeable
that tolerance is expected, and in more politically correct cultures, demanded.

different ways to show tolerance. A person might fully disagree with others on any
issue, while at the same respecting those with different opinions and treating
them with dignity. 37 .

fact that this respect is sometimes one-sided. 38 , but some supporters feel reasonable in labeling those who disagree
with hateful terms, and vice versa. People on both sides of an issue must be
tolerant of each other.

accept actions or ideas that are against his or her values or beliefs. It means
that each person agrees to respect the other"s right to his or her feelings on
the matter. When both parties have expressed their opinions, and it is obvious
that neither is likely to change position, agreeing to disagree is often the
ideal outcome.

tolerance is necessary in any civilized society. 40 . It goes against human nature. Putting up with differences is a
virtue that requires honest effort on the part of every person. It takes time
