"The Age of Tolerance"


Today, as I write this, the United States of America has entered into what I call, an "Age of Tolerance."*  Practically, this "tolerance" reflects a rejection of any absolute moral authority.  Proponents of "tolerance" suggest that there are no moral absolutes and therefore, encourage us to accept all forms of moral devotion, no matter how perverse.  The mantra of tolerance is, "to each his own."

What do I think about the, "Age of Tolerance?"  Well, I do know that we are not the first country to try it.

"In those days there was no king in Israel;
everyone did what was right in his own eyes."
Judges 17:6; 21:25

And God warns, "You shall not do at all what we are doing here today, every man doing what ever is right in his own eyes" (Deuteronomy 12:8).

And God predicts, "There is a way which seems right to man, but its end is the way of death" (Proverbs 14:2;16:25).

And God declares, "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes" (Proverbs 12:15).

Who does God think He is anyway?!
