Tolerance: Worth Reaching For


Is it normal to hate someone we've never met

Is it normal to talk about the way they look

                                                                      talk

                                                                         walk

                                                                             dress

                                                                                    worship

                                                                                          live?

Is she stupid?

Who let him leave the house like that?

Did she get that at good will?

Is he gay or something?.

 

     The real question here is

What's it to you?
