Resource summary
The Tolerant Individual (Forst)
Components
Objection
To tolerate something we must initially object to it on a personal principle
Acceptance
This is balanced by our acceptance that for whatever reason, the objectionable activity must freely continue
Rejection
Tolerance must have limits, so if the objectionable action/belief break the limits of acceptability, we must stop it
Conceptions
Permission
Where a majority makes concessions to a minority, but rights are unequal/could be taken away.
In 1950s USA, a white person might not give black people the right to ride in the front of buses, but thinks that slavey is too extreme
could just be seen as another means of asserting dominance 'tyranny of the majority'
Co-existence
two groups with similar power compromise to facilitate peace/social stabilty
Religious Peace of Augsburg 1555
