The paradox of tolerance.

[Majed]

The paradox of tolerance, is that the more you tolerate other behaviors, the more you become risk tolerant yourself. 
Because if you tolerate something in others, you tolerate it in yourself as well. So if you tolerate rapists, you might become a rapist. If you tolerate drug addicts, you might become a drug addict. If you tolerate serial killers, you might become a serial killer. 
Because understanding someone's point of view, makes you more susceptible of taking the same actions they take yourself. 
That's why most people are so intolerant. That's why mainstream religion like islam or christianity are intolerant. 
Christians like to say God is love. But are you kidding me ? Do you understand what God is love means ? God is love means you tolerate murderers, rapists, tyrants, homosexuals, pedophiles , drug addicts, alcoholics...
Everuthing you judge as evil, you must tolerate to understand that you are God, and that you are love: to understand what God is love means. 
And mainstream fake religion is notoriously intolerant, because it is about survival not truth or understanding. 
And to be honest it ain't all that bad, because religion has an empahsis on discipline, which most people need to succeed in life. So religion can teach you that, the issue is that tolerance brings with it a lack of discipline and looseness. 
If you start to contemplate and understand a serial killer's perspective you might become one. 
Because a rule in life is that everything is gray, no perspective is black and white. So for example if you contemplate the perspective of a serial killer, you might realize you yourself have the urge to murder others, within yourself. And if you explore yourself and that urge in particular too much, you might become a murderers. You might realize that killing others is exciting and addictive. 
This is just one example, there are millions of other examples. Like if you're a scientist, and you tolerate mystics too much, you might become one a ruin your career as a scientist. Or if you're a muslim, and you tolerate atheists you might become one, and so on... 
If you're straight and tolerate gay people, you might turn gay, or discover you have homosexual impulses, maybe even some paraphilic tendencies...
So anyways God is infinite tolerance, which is death to the self, both existentially and psychologically like death of the ego, but also physically like physical death. It takes a lot of wisdom to reach ego death without physically putting yourself in danger.

I actually think its the opposite. If you demonize these things you become them. If you tolerate them then you dont think about it.

I think the tolerance issue is that if you tolerate everything suddenly everyone is shitting in your front yard.

The serial killer puts a 'demon' in their mind they say to themselves 'i really don't want to be a serial killer' then react very negatively towards it and then the demon consumes them.

Where most people are tolerant they accept that its not them they don't create the internal thought loop.

The serial killer is intolerant of them becoming a serial killer and paradoxically focus on it until their thought loops cant stop thinking about it.

The gay men or hiding gay men project that they are intolerant of gay men and that creates a thought loop of gay men in their mind and suddenly they want to have sex with a man.

The straight ones are like thats just not worth thinking about.

This is where the saying comes in if you want to be an angel you become a demon.

All intolerance is intolerance of the finite self to Infinity.

Survival requires that you not tolerate the things that will kill you.
