“Tolerate” anything?

So if the latest Gallup poll can be believed (almost a 10% swing in one year?), over 50% of Americans are just fine and dandy with homosexual marriage. Excuse me if I don’t throw a party (divorce and our hyper-sexual culture have already done enough damage to the American family). Apparently, God’s Word and the concept of eternity are now far less important than the horror of being judged “intolerant” by one’s friends and neighbors. It seems that pseudo-Christianity has eclipsed the real thing. We’re now embracing the warm and fuzzy “I’m OK; you’re OK” religion. (We may both be “OK” – but our behaviors and actions often are not.)
 
Just a couple problems with the pseudo version – there is an eternity, and God’s not that tolerant: The Truth of God’s Tolerance of Sin

As the controversy over gay marriage “rights” continues, we see the distinction between the two groups becoming more and more defined–with the pro-gay and the “religious right.” But what is happening is that many religious people are trying to span the chasm between the two by watering down the Word of God in the name of tolerance. People try to paint Jesus as a tolerant man. But the raw truth is that He wasn’t.
 
The Book of Revelation is full of Jesus’ intolerance for both the faux-Christian and the unbeliever. So please don’t bore me with your new-age, humanistic, relativistic, screw-ball beliefs on Jesus and God. The only people you are fooling are those who are walking the fence who wouldn’t know the Word of God from a quote in a fortune cookie.
