rivame: "MY" tolerence level is really swayed by the way a situation is presented. Same situation...two different people..one can really get my hackles up where another can have me say "ok fair enough"
good day,rivame,thankyou for visiting. you said a mouthful there,even among people of the same or similar beliefs,can get into serious disagreements. so how can we expect a flawless relationship,between people who are oceans apart,in their cultures,and belief systems. there is ONE common point that seems to jell around ALL peoples, and that is one word"RESPECT",this is a common denominator.will all use it? doubtful,but those that recognize the power of respect can change their little part of the world, and by setting a positive example,may be a shining guidance of illumination for others. thankyou again wolfen
mikew2479: I think tolerance is a method of gauging your own emotional balance
good day mikew,thankyou for polling today. yes i have to agree,for we all set certain boundaries for ourselves.we know these are put into motion at an young age,by the contributing factors of genetics,environment,class,education,skill levels,and as some perceive the time of year we are born,all this barring the external influences,of pollution,chemical exposures,magical influences,and ones closeness to nature. that is a lot of variables,to try to balance within ones own sphere,let alone the others we interact with. have a great day mikew
Just taking a minute to offer my sincere thanks to all (especially Eaglewoman, Class5, & Felixis) for understanding my point of view, and for validating that wanting this important clarification is NOT splitting hairs. Some things are worth spending some time and thought on, and this is one of them. Thank you thank you thank you!

Oh stop! Really, how old are you now? I have sent members a picture of myself when I have been asked and/or have formed a trusting friendship. I choose not to post a picture here for my own reasons, it has nothing to do with you and you have nothing to say about it. It is none of your business--why do you feel a need to be so hostile? Is it that you can't stand it when you can't control someone else? Newsflash--there are many people who see through control freak shows. Give it up-----you are very thinly veiled.

wolfenfun: good day maxmate,how are you today? always a pleasure. i have to agree.especially when particularly in this venue,all we have to express our ideas,and values,and morals,,,are words,and emoticons, lol these ARE tools and very often the skill levels using these,are key to the understandings, between peoples of different cultures. in the end, the written, or spoken words are a bridge that can only be crossed if one wants to span the differences,or distances, between the litigants. i still contest that english is one of the worst languages to communicate in. more often than not it is a double edged sword that both communicators end up bleeding from,lol. i also believe that english is medium for a magical spell to hypnotise the masses,with a montra,weaved within,bu that is a subject for another time,my friend,ttys wolfen
Well you certainly got that right. Nevertheless it is the 2nd most used language after China, so unless you are planning to learn Mandarin you had better start practising your English.
well if you can't have the hair to post a pic of yourself how about putting some of the spotlight on your self with YOUR OWN forum. or is even one thing of the two,too much for you to show some maturity,culpibility,adventure?ability to take critisism of ones OWN ideas put forth? once again your fan wolfen go poo poo someone else
hahaha how odd you should mention that i've just received a beginners course for chinese(mandarin) never know they have bought up a goodly bit of the usa debt,it may come in handy,ttyl wolfen

Over here people already speak Chinese. At least the numbers, as they need them when ordering a Chinese takeaway.
I voted "No", and before anyone chops my head off, please read on.
In my book, "tolerating" is the huffing and puffing before one blows up. It means that one is unhappy with a situation but due to factors beyond ones control, he has to let go and not insist. It is like "I don't like it, but it will have to do" In engineering, the tolerance is the variance from the nominal that one can accept.
I would rather understand, accept, not judge unfairly, and give space to others as I would that they do to me.

thankyou bental,very good point. we should not have to catagorize such things,respect says a lot
wolfenfun: thanks atwoz you're pretty close to mine. igues my problem is i have a tendency to stereotype groups, and tolerate individuals,wow groups of folks,always just make my jaw drop.. the pack or herd mentality could be from ancient time when we needed to get together,for saftey in numbers,thingy
Intolerance for 'others' is as natural as the attachment to the 'own people' - the same part of brain is responsible. Therefore tolerance for difference is something we have to learn.

Good day Sir!
Yes indeed the magic part is very interesting. There are thousands of Covens operating there And I suspect some lone-old Witches/Wizards operating here too!
I somehow agree with you on the part of English as a language to communicate.
wolfenfun: in this poll,i'm striving to get a real sense of the direction of tolerance as a tool, to bring respect,understanding,and a reconciling to a better future, and find out who, and what are the real causes of discord,within society. your positive input is encouraged,if my poll choices are lacking please select none of the above,and contribute, happy polling!
Could you perhaps be more specific in your question? I think that most of us will tolerate somethings, but not others.
maxmate1: Sir, thanks, yet again, for sharing such an informative perspective. You have instigated my curiosity to actually read your work in "Word Weaving" and would be really pleased if you could let me read it too.
You are quite right about the "methods" and certain repitition of "words" everyday that have an intended effect on the target group of people.
It became known to humans, long ago, the effect of "Sings/symbols" and certain "words/hymns/sounds" that invoked an activity in the universe around us. More towards the other dimension outside time and space we are trapped in. I'm not surprised how the languages were invented and the inventors decided what to call what and how to pronounce it correctly. For they knew (and know) exactly what it invoked/invokes. For example, why God is called "GOD" in English? Who made this word and why? The same entity is called "Allah" "Rama" "Budha" by other groups. Perhaps, for a spell to work, the (english) word has to be 'spelt' rightly. Imagine, you have to spell the word. Whereas "spell" is the same word for a magical spell too. Is there a relevance?
Now we know they are constantly inventing new words (spells) with the right teckne to make the spell work as intended. And are constantly busy doing it. Rhetoric has achieved more evil than good so far in it's history of practice.
What do you think?
good day sir,i hope this finds you well. i've been studying further and have been away from this site a bit more. it will be a while before i have a manuscript put together for the publication. i have quite a lot of material,to work with,now is the hard part. catagorizing,setting things up in chronological order, being "raised",as a christian,and being"sentenced"to 11yr of ministerial schooling,i had many hours,of study, and contemplation, of this particular venue. the clues,to the magic(holy spirit)evokations, the difference, invokation,and evokation,is ,as to the hierarchy of the spirits,gods,demons,or which ever other dieties,are being communicated with.if one is evoking, then this is classified,an lesser deity,or demon.when invoking,one is making contact with a greater deity,or higher up in the classifications of esoteric creatures,deceptive magicians,will call their actual evokations,,,,invokations, to make the spell they are casting seem more important, or to make themselves,look as a greater magic worker. the 72 SPIRITS OF SOLOMON, are a good way to see how many magicians,are evoking the lesser demons,to accomplish,power,profit,and controls of the masses.please feel free to look up these 72 spirits of solomon,in the wikipedia,there is fairly,good representations of their appearance, and descriptions,of their abilities,and blessings,or curses,they can procure for, or in the stead of the magician, or of the magical person,evoking them. one must keep in mind through all this information,this is all in a effort,to keep the masses,focused on a STORY,that started in egypt,about 5000yr ago. this story started out as the goddesss "ISIS",and her son "HORUS".this was during the time of the egyptian empire,then a few conturies later the character names were changed,to "DIONYSIS",and the satyr boy,during the greecian empire,then a few more centuries later ,the character names were changed again,during the time of the british-roman empire rise,the names were pushed through,bribery,force, and slaughter,and wars "JEHOVAH", and "JESUS",please take note that these agendas were "forced" upon the existing societies,all around the time of the rise,or fall of the previous empire. among these three stories,there are 186 story markers throughout,that are identical.there is even a disclaimer written within,calling the celebration of the boychild,the"greatest story ever told",this is still mentioned, around christmas time. i always enjoy our exchanges maxmate,and will check in regularly,but not daily. i look forward your next comments.this is a long subject,lol wolfen ttyl
v.e.your snappy replies do set me back so. it must be lonely up there,in your lofty position. let's see your a female, on the edge of maturity. living,and socializing where there is no competition,and you have everything as you would have it.does your grandfathers fame help,your arrogant,attitude? do you get kudos,for his hard work? what have you accomplished, personally? where have you been,lived and worked,and adventured,and literally had to survive? i think you have had a very sheltered life and i feel pity for you,ms hyena.
I do have my own beliefs and points of view torward a bunch of diff. subjects. And I like those to be respected.
Hence I don't expect some other human being shares them, but I expect a decent human being respects them. I do respect others ideas. As long as they respect mine .
The more u practice tolerance and respect...the more it gets easy to do it.
