I could pick a fight if I wanted here. LOL. And that's the point, isn't it? "Tolerating gays? So they need to be tolerated? How nice!"

Which illustrates a point...like Snappy said. The written word is subject to interpretation (authorial intent vs. reader response). What you mean, what you say and what I interpret are all very different things.

OK tolerating isn't the right word, I guess accepting them or treating them equally is what I meant.
