From the pen of G.K. Chesterton. . .

“Tolerance is the virtue of the man . . . without convictions”

And not having convictions is too high a price to pay for being liked by everyone.

    Hmmm, I’ve always considered tolerance to be a good virtue, unless it is carried too far.

      For me it has to do with right and wrong…some things are just black or white. A lie is still a lie, regardless of how many people may believe it and the truth is still the truth, regardless of how many people dismiss it. Your point about taking something too far is appreciated here. Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment.
