Everyone is so entitled. "I can do whatever I want and you can't stop me." There's no consideration for anyone or anything else. <br /><br />You're not alone, Megan.

You have opened up a dialogue that is both interesting and timely. We have been warned about the new religion of tolerance, and it's potential effect on society. Sadly, now we are living it. I need to address this in my personal life, as this behavior can become contagious. Behaviors that would be addressed or even shunned are accepted as being okay, and if you are offended by bad behavior, you are the one with the problem. How did things get turned so up side down, and so quickly!?! The answers are always found in following God's way. peace and blessing!

In the old days, when someone did something shameful, they received lots of censure from their community. Now, bad acts are lauded as somehow evidence of freedom. We're supposed to show tolerance; it's the new religion.<br />Really sad. This is what happens when we turn our backs on God's standards.DenaNethertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12247035834657508537noreply@blogger.com
