We should have a better understanding of what tolerance means. When you understand something, you know how it is caused, it´s consequences, and how it is. People, knows the cause of tolerance, and how it is, but they don´t really know it´s consequences. Therefor we should analyze the consequences in our society.

Tolerance is a double sided sword, it can make the society to be more comfortable, because they won´t have discussions about if what they are doing, thinking, or believing is good or no, but at the same time is making us become immoral beings; people that is tolerant, instead of becoming more respectful or being more moral, they are making a concept in their lifes that tells them that everything is right, while it isn´t, that’s why they are becoming immoral beings.

We must be just but not tolerant, we still don´t know at all the consequences of the tolerance, we just know the intolerance consequences, but we need to look for equilibrium, intolerance is one extreme and tolerance is the other; justice is the perfect middle, but we are scared of it, because it is no comfortable.

Intellectuals, tech us that we should be tolerant with the others. Without seeing that we are becoming insensible to all the events of our surroundings. If we are tolerant, then we think we should “respect” the others by don´t give arguments that go against their knowing’s, or beliefs. If society makes this, then they shouldn´t exist laws, because everything would be right, so then people will start doing what they want, and there will be no treats, and no society, and no union.

We should work for making society understand this and stop of just “sit in the fence”. Now we can see some of the consequences of tolerance, as a growing immorality in our society, and a huge individualism. If it continues like this, society will be destroy in a slow die, as everything would be correct, government will be destroy, and wars will be everywhere because people would be in its right to fight someone don´t tolerate them, and many other things would occur, that’s why we should change and instead of being tolerant, we should be just, but without avoiding mercy. Its much work, but its consequences are good.
