What is tolerance?

Should we tolerate cultures that do clitorectomies? How do we protect these women? How to do it within the Constitution? How to do it with respect for humanity? What did Alice Walker suggest? What about beating and killing women because they go to school or work? Education. Science. Rational thought. Reasoning. (The same things that many U.S. people need - such as the Greens, Sierra Club, New Agers, etc. that "believe" so kooky things too). Answer: EDUCATE. TEACH CRITCAL THINKING!!!
